Only here this could happen.

BPD sniper rifle falls off the roof during Sunday's St. Patrick's Day parade What a bunch the commish was at the bruins sabers game during the parade and the troops screw up. I would of thought the commish should have been at the parade directing the troops or being up erkels butt. Most likely the cop was on OT and lost his weapon. Why did you need swat there just like the sheriff's dept having swat teams sitting in their vans during the sabres games? What a waste of taxpayers' money.
