Lebanon police seek to regain
Lebanon officials are scrambling to regain the public's trust after two police officers lost their jobs after allegedly stealing weapons from the police evidence room.
Patrolman Larry Loveless and Sgt. Fred Jacobs each took a gun without permission, said City Manager Pat Clements.
Loveless resigned on Nov. 2. Sgt. Fred Jacobs was suspended two weeks later and fired on Nov. 27.
"The public has a right to expect a high level of ethics from all parts of the government, but particularly the law enforcement branch," said Lebanon City Manager Pat Clements. "We are and will continue to work diligently to restore the public's faith in its law enforcement system."
Loveless became the object of investigation after investigators say he sold a revolver to a Hamilton County resident, who later reported Loveless. A subsequent investigation uncovered a missing shotgun, which was linked to Jacobs.
Both weapons were supposed to have been destroyed as part of a routine purging of the evidence storage facility. They have been recovered.
