Virginia Minn. Chief of Police Dana Waldron poses outside the Virginia City Hall, Wednesday Feb. 4, 2009, with the 1921-era Thompson submachine gun which has been in the possession of the Virginia Police Department for decades although no one remembers where it came from. The vintage .45 caliber weapon made famous during the Prohabition era, could be worth more than $25,000 and the city is considering selling it to help deal with cuts in local government aid from the state.
