' Pawn shops are re�ulated by City Ordinance 344.00. Ordinance 344.04 (a)(6b) &(3) (i) states that all Pawn shops are required to video tape all transactions and maintain a dated copy of this recording for four months or 120 days. Cash-n-Pawn 4, 490 W. University, 651-227-5080, did the following. On 2-13- 2001 at 1629 hours, they took in a Craftsman Snowblower under transaction number 012177. On 3-24- 2001 at 1423 hours, they took in a Diamondback 12 speed bike under transaction number 012356. The customer in both of these transaction was Brown, Antonio, 7-7-64. While checking these items thru NCIC, I found that the bike was stolen in a garage burglary in St. Paul, repo¢ed under CN- O1-05�935. The snowblower comes back cleaz at this time. On 4-20-01 I called Cash-n-Pawn and talked to Mgr. James Ganzer, Ganzer told me that he could not show me a tape for either of the above 2ransac[ions. He stated that on 2-13-01, the tape in the VCR had ended and wasn't changed until afrer abouc forty- �� : c,. - "�-c;� � , � �� ('�-� �._ `- �` f . �i �� L/:c�� `�J J ,'' Saint Paul Police Department ,, . �� ORfGINAL OFFENSE / INCIDENT REPORT Page 2 01 �P'G� CamplaintNumber Reference C.K PAmary offense Date and Time ofReport 01-091803 INFORMATION REPORT 05l11l2001 09:39 five minutes. On 3-24-01 ihe VCR had been broken for up to ttuee days and no recording had been done during this period. The fact that tl�ese uausactions had not been rewrded and saved is a violation of Pawn shop regulation 344.04 (a)(6b) &(3) (i). In ffiis particulu case, not having the video transaction on tape may result in not chazging the individual who pawned it.

' Pawn shops are re�ulated by City Ordinance 344.00. Ordinance 344.04 (a)(6b) &(3) (i) states that all Pawn shops are required to video tape all transactions and maintain a dated copy of this recording for four months or 120 days. Cash-n-Pawn 4, 490 W. University, 651-227-5080, did the following. On 2-13- 2001 at 1629 hours, they took in a Craftsman Snowblower under transaction number 012177. On 3-24- 2001 at 1423 hours, they took in a Diamondback 12 speed bike under transaction number 012356. The customer in both of these transaction was Brown, Antonio, 7-7-64. While checking these items thru NCIC, I found that the bike was stolen in a garage burglary in St. Paul, repo¢ed under CN- O1-05�935. The snowblower comes back cleaz at this time. On 4-20-01 I called Cash-n-Pawn and talked to Mgr. James Ganzer, Ganzer told me that he could not show me a tape for either of the above 2ransac[ions. He stated that on 2-13-01, the tape in the VCR had ended and wasn't changed until afrer abouc forty- �� : c,. - "�-c;� � , � �� ('�-� �._ `- �` f . �i �� L/:c�� `�J J ,'' Saint Paul Police Department ,, . �� ORfGINAL OFFENSE / INCIDENT REPORT Page 2 01 �P'G� CamplaintNumber Reference C.K PAmary offense Date and Time ofReport 01-091803 INFORMATION REPORT 05l11l2001 09:39 five minutes. On 3-24-01 ihe VCR had been broken for up to ttuee days and no recording had been done during this period. The fact that tl�ese uausactions had not been rewrded and saved is a violation of Pawn shop regulation 344.04 (a)(6b) &(3) (i). In ffiis particulu case, not having the video transaction on tape may result in not chazging the individual who pawned it.
