ORLANDO, Fla. -- Guns, bullets, handcuffs and police uniforms are on the streets after being stolen from an Orlando police officer.
Orange County deputies said someone broke into an officer's home in the middle of the day and took the officer's police belt and handgun.
Deputies are investigating the theft and are concerned that in the wrong hands, someone could use the items to impersonate a police officer.
The sheriff's office is also investigating to see if the officer was targeted.
