ST. LOUIS • A woman who went to the city's Civilian Oversight Board to file a complaint against the police has been charged after police say she stole a gun from an investigator.

The Circuit Attorney's Office charged Latoca Lashai Davis, 27, of the 4800 block of Calvin Avenue, with a count of felony stealing. Police say video surveillance cameras caught her entering the investigator's office in a building at 1520 Market Street Thursday, then leaving with the gun, according to court documents.

Investigator Aldin Lolic kept the gun, a Sig-Sauer semi-automatic pistol, in a bag in his office, according to court documents.

A police department spokeswoman would not describe the complaint Davis was lodging at the time of the alleged theft, saying the department won't comment once the Circuit Attorney's Office issues charges.

The Civilian Oversight Board reports to the Director of Public Safety.

Judge Barbara Peebles set Davis' bail at 10 percent of $10,000, which has been posted, according to court records.
