TOLEDO, Ohio — A former Toledo Police officer has pleaded guilty to a federal charge of possessing a stolen firearm.
Curtis Stone was indicted earlier this year.
In federal court Tuesday, he pleaded guilty to an accusation that he took a gun from the Toledo Police evidence room.
Stone retired from TPD in 2018. Later that year during a traffic stop, a 9mm pistol was found that was registered by Stone as destroyed in 2016. The discovery led to a search of Stone’s home in Delta, where a Taurus PT-738 was found. That pistol had also been registered as destroyed.
Stone will be sentenced in August.
