Belt Auction

Would you ever buy a used cop car after reading this?

R.I. Man Finds Cocaine In Used Police Cruiser BURRILLVILLE, R.I. - A Burrillville town councilor got more than he bargained for when he bought a used police cruiser at auction. Kevin Blais bought the 2004 Ford Crown Victoria in an online auction from the Hartford, Conn., public works department. He was cleaning it last week when he noticed a cracked area on the one-piece molded seat assembly. When he removed the seat assembly to clean the floor, he found a plastic bag containing a substance that local police later confirmed was cocaine. Blais speculates that a suspect stuffed the drugs through the crack to prevent police from finding them. Burrillville Lt. Kevin San Antonio says Hartford police were "apologetic" when he told them of the discovery. Hartford police spokeswoman Nancy Mulroy said Friday that based on their past experience with drug suspects, Blais' speculation is almost certainly correct. "It's not unusual that perpetrators or suspects try to hide stuff in the cruisers before they go to booking, where they know they'll be searched," she said. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080809/ap_on_fe_st/odd_cruiser_drugs;_ylt=AtACm9lW1FFlLkAtbE.HW0ouQE4F

1. yea, it has a bouns story
2. No not my kind of car anyway.
3. haha that's funny but i still wouldnt buy a used cop car i think they're ugly unless its a camaro or charger or suv cop car
4. I wouldnt have considered it but, after reading this, I think I might just go out and buy one. Maybe I'll find a lost can of mace or handcuffs
5. I wouldn't buy a cop car in the first place...
6. absolutely
7. Everytime a suspect is brought in, the back seats are always checked for this reason. Must've been a 1 in a million thing that it would be in there for that long.
8. Lmao, that's funny, i personally wouldn't buy a used cop car...i seen the way they like to thrash them...lmfao! :)
9. Just for the engine. The Crown Victoria comes with an Interceptor engine that is so quick it's crazy. Of course the police would have taken the blue chip out it, but the engine alone is worth the buy. I'd replace the engine in a Ford Taurus. That thing would be so fast. Ohhhh yeahhhh.
10. I wouldnt have bought one anyway, There has been sombody's ass in that saddle 24/7 since it was rolled out of the factory door. Sorry, but I just think of things like that... I like my vehicles to have been a little less 'used'
11. I will now
12. That sounds like it was the cops stash, that's what I'd say also if I was the cop... ... would have been marijuana tho
