Another reason every day is Gun Appreciation Day

The Sheriff’s Office said it has disciplined a deputy who accidentally left his gun in a dressing room at the Military Circle Macy’s on Monday.

“The deputy realized as soon as he returned home that he had left his weapon behind and immediately notified the store and the Norfolk Sheriff’s Office’s Professional Standards Division,” a statement from the Sheriff’s Office said. “The Norfolk Sheriff’s Office considers this a very serious and unacceptable situation and has taken immediate and appropriate disciplinary action against the deputy.”

The gun was recovered in the dressing room, said Paula Miller, a Sheriff’s Office spokeswoman. The deputy’s name was not released. Police often carry their duty weapons when they are off-duty.
