Wow, extremely lucky for the chief. I've had 1 gun stolen in my life and of course it was the only gun that meant anything to me, my dad gave it to me when I graduated HS. Anyone other gun being stolen would have been fine, just not that one.
This story ended happily normally it doesn't happen like this with stolen property.

The Spokesman-Review, Spokane, Wash.
COLVILLE, Wash. — A man previously unknown to law enforcement has returned 27 guns that were stolen last spring from the home of the Kettle Falls police chief.
The man called Chief Chris Courchene’s office on Monday, a day after The Spokesman-Review broke news of the April 6 burglary and the complicated, nine-month investigation that followed.
The man, whose name was not released, told authorities he had received the guns from Courchene’s ex-girlfriend, Alayna R. Smith, as collateral after she approached him asking for a loan, saying her aunt was sick. The man said he didn’t know the guns were stolen until he learned about it from the newspaper.
