Sources told WFTV it was an automatic M-4 assault rifle, stolen from the unmarked vehicle of nine-year veteran Officer John Foshee outside his home in Volusia County over the weekend. [More]So I guess that means it's no longer a "patrol rifle"?

If they recover it or hold a real "buyback" it will again become a patrol rifle.
That's an idea. Why don't they offer a buyback for the weapon, "no questions asked". It would actually be accurate to call it a buyback.
And how many private vehicles do you know that have lockable gun racks with automatic weapons in the rack and keys left in the rack?
An except from J.H. Gutmacher, Esq.'s "Florida Firearms: Law, Use & Ownership":
"... The storing of a loaded firearm withing the reach or easy access of a minor child under the age of sixteen, where the person knows, or should know, the minor is likely to gain access to it without lawful permission or supervision is a felony of the third degree if the minor obtains the loaded firearm and uses it to inflict injury or death upon himself or any other person."
There does not appear to be an an exemption for unlocked unmarked police vehicles parked at private homes.
You gotta be shitting me! I have rarely ever read such a suck-ass piece passing as news.
And, you are correct David, it is a dangerous assault weapon unless it is wielded by a person wearing a Super-hero costume and bearing a magic shield.

It makes me wanna puke.
