"NEW YORK (AP) - A sting operation resulted in the arrest Tuesday of five New York Police Department officers on charges that they smuggled firearms, cigarettes and slot machines they thought were stolen, federal authorities said.
The officers were among 12 people charged in a criminal complaint unsealed in federal court in Manhattan. Three retired NYPD officers and a New Jersey corrections officer are among the other defendants.
The men were to appear in court later Tuesday to face conspiracy and firearms charges. The names of their attorneys were not immediately available."UPDATE: There is more (and I know two of them).
