DOT workers find handgun if drainage pipe


web posted March 11, 2010
TRENTON – South Carolina Department of Transportation (SCDOT) workers reported the discovery of a handgun found in a drainage pipe to a pond on Woodward Lake Road Tuesday. At this time it is unknown how the handgun made its way to the piping and the Edgefield County Sheriff’s Office took control of the gun and launched an investigation.

According to official reports on the matter made available on Wednesday, the Smith & Wesson .38 caliber pistol was not reported as stolen at this time. It was taken into evidence and the owner is being tracked by the serial number found on the pistol.

It is not unusual for serial numbers of possible stolen guns not to appear on reports, as many owners do not keep records of serial numbers so they can be provided at the time of the theft.

The case is currently being handled by the Edgefield County Sheriff’s Investigative Unit. Additional information is expected to be available later this week in the case.
