POSTED: Tuesday, July 10, 2007

A backpack belonging to a drug enforcement agent and containing a gun, handcuffs and other items was stolen from a government vehicle, KPRC Local 2 reported Tuesday.

The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration's Houston office said one of its agents was a victim of a burglary at an IHOP restaurant on the Southwest Freeway last month.

The stolen items included his U.S. passport, a Glock .40-caliber firearm with the magazine, handcuffs and other work-related items.

The DEA and Houston police said the burglary is under investigation and the items have not been recovered.
