Ok when I first posted this I thought it was funny, but now with the recent news I found related to this story it's not so funny and therefore I'm moving this to the Chit Chat section.
News reports in the aftermath of the storm put officers at the scene of some of the heaviest looting, at the Wal-Mart in the Lower Garden District. Some witnesses, including a Times-Picayune reporter, said police were taking items from shelves.
"Once we actually got the video, we started our investigation," acting Police Superintendent Warren Riley said at a news conference. "The investigation does in fact show police officers with some items."
