Pursuant to the Connecticut Freedom of Information Act, I hereby request the following records:
• All records pertaining to the most recent audit of any weapons and equipment owned by the University of Connecticut Police Department (i.e., firearms, tasers, batons, protective gear, surveillance equipment, tactical and defense equipment, vehicles, etc.).
If no such records exist than I request the alternative records:
• All records pertaining to the weapons that may be carried by officers as determined by the University of Connecticut Police Department chief of police, or the University of Connecticut Police Department board, or officer having control of the University of Connecticut Police Department
• Any lists, databases, and inventory rosters containing weapons and equipment used by University of Connecticut Police Department officers (i.e., firearms, tasers, batons, protective gear, surveillance equipment, tactical and defense equipment, vehicles, etc.).
A list of weapons that are currently owned, duly authorized, and safely stored by the University of Connecticut Police Department is of great interest to the public in providing greater context for this public discourse.
