$5,000? How much does BPD spend on uniforms?

If the line "53700 Clothing Allowance" in the itemized budget doc for public safety is what would reflect that expense.

The press release said that they stole several uniforms, and that the pictures were just samples of what had been stolen.

That the people stealing these uniforms may pose a security threat at one of the major events coming to Boston this year (Marathon/US Open).

I think it was probably a regular burglar looking for guns/knives etc but didn't find any and settled for this other stuff.
