S.C. chief accused of stealing, selling seized guns

WEST PELZER, S.C. -- A South Carolina police chief has been charged with misconduct after authorities say he stole and then sold guns.

The State Law Enforcement Division says 38-year-old Bernard Lloyd Wilson II of Pelzer was arrested Friday.

Between September 2004 and January of this year, SLED says Wilson sold at pawnshops more than 10 rifles and pistols that had been seized by his officers. Agents say he used the money for the benefit of his police department.

But an arrest warrant says Wilson bought some guns back, then resold them at a higher price and kept that money for himself.
