"The bullets were not returned."
What happened to the brass, powder, and primers?
Ha! Good question....I'm guessing he returned them with the guns...just not the bullets. (Totally kidding...they all went in a trash can I'm sure).

I would not have ever confessed to that
You know...I'm really starting to wonder if stories like this aren't completely manufactured publicity stunts all thanks to the multi billion dollar anti gun lobbyist. You know they have the power to make anything they want happen in the news (like an AR15 "accidentally" showing up at some guys HOUSE in Washington D.C. of all places...). Stories like these help them push their agenda. I'm just saying, it would not surprise me in the least bit.
Um, yeah. If I found the neighbor who did this, better believe charges are being pressed.
What charge?
Theft of bullets?

Theft of bullets?
If you get into someone's vehicle without permission I think you've commited burglary of a motor vehicle whether you take something or not. LEOs can correct me if I'm wrong.
This is Texas' Definition...
§ 30.02. BURGLARY. (a) A person commits an offense if, without the effective consent of the owner, the person: (1) enters a habitation, or a building (or any portion of a building) not then open to the public, with intent to commit a felony, theft, or an assault; or
(2) remains concealed, with intent to commit a felony, theft, or an assault, in a building or habitation; or
(3) enters a building or habitation and commits or attempts to commit a felony, theft, or an assault.
Correct i copied wrong section but he still commetted theft and that was his intent when he entered the vehicle.
Careful there. Someone might call you "wild, silly and ...........".
...
I myself am voting on it being a phony story setup by anti-gunners trying to make gun owners look stupid.
he took the gun from the car it's burglary of a motor vehicle.wrong law.
Sec. 30.04. BURGLARY OF VEHICLES. (a) A person commits an offense if, without the effective consent of the owner, he breaks into or enters a vehicle or any part of a vehicle with intent to commit any felony or theft.
(b) For purposes of this section, "enter" means to intrude:
(1) any part of the body; or
(2) any physical object connected with the body.
Sec. 31.03. THEFT. (a) A person commits an offense if he unlawfully appropriates property with intent to deprive the owner of property.
Only the bullets could be theft.
