This one is a real head-scratcher. Doesn't the Police Captain get his own vehicle in Manassas?

Manassas Park police Capt. Travis Mosher, the force’s third in command, resigned one day after he was charged with stealing a volunteer fire chief’s vehicle in Woodbridge on Saturday night. City police Chief John Evans confirmed Mosher’s resignation late Sunday afternoon, and did not say who would replace Mosher as operations commander. Mosher, 30, was arrested after the Dale City Volunteer Fire Department reported one of its SUVs stolen from an installation celebration at the Occoquan-Woodbridge-Lorton fire station on F Street. Police received the stolen vehicle report about 7:30 p.m. (Insidenova.com)

A 30 y.o. police Captain?

Really?

Their standards must be excruciatingly low in Manassas.

That's what I was thinking. And it kinda makes you wonder what other crap he has pulled.

Wow, that was uncalled for.

This officer was a personal friend of the family and I can say without a doubt that this was a one time stupid decision that has cost him big.

I don't know how you can say that . If the Dept. is Civil Service and the guy passed at the head of the list for captain and was a Vet. then he get's made. I was a Sergeant at 27 and could have been made a Captain by the time I was 30. Atlantic City did not have a Lieutenant rank. I did not finish high enough on the list to get made Captain untill just prior to my retirement in 1994. I choose to give up the promotion to Captain so that I could get an early retirement present an extra 5% in my pension for life that pushed me up to 70%. As far as standards go if you don't work in the job as a supervisor then how would you know what the should be. A small dept. will have diffrent standards from a large dept.
