...Lauren Tannehill, wife of Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill, turned in a rental car, but forgot to remove an AR-15 rifle from the back seat.
The weapon was found by the next rental customer, a woman from New York, who turned it into police.
“This is certainly the kind of item you don’t want to forget anywhere, but forgetting isn’t a crime,” said Broward Sheriff’s Office spokeswoman Keyla Concepcion.
According to a BSO report, Lauren Tannehill, 26, rented a Nissan Rogue from E-Z Rent-A-Car on Jan. 4. She had the vehicle for about two hours, then turned it in for another.

Why don’t I ever find a paperless AR?
I lost a GPS Unit that way...
Actually, in some areas leaving a gun unattended is a crime.
When I take my car someplace to leave it I usually take the car gun out. Although it’s not illegal to have one stolen it is pretty stupid to make it available to somebody.

Just imagine if the woman from New York had driven back to New York with that in the car...
Must have been a thorough vehicle check done by the rental company after it was turned in...wow
Doesn’t say much for the rental car company. Guess they didn’t wash windows or do a quick vacuum or anything.
Yeah, they were so upset and sickened that they opened the bag and took a picture and sent it to the media and then went on T...
Definitely not guilty...and you have the tagline of the day!
I don’t know how Mrs Zaftig’s daughter will recover...
Well, I guess the good news is the gun was apparently unloaded. What an air head. People like this give gun owners a bad name.
nice furniture. no mags in the pic.
Based on the pictures and her actions, I would say that Ryan Tannehill found the perfect wife. Beautiful, dumb and blond. What more could you ask for?
I stand corrected. In an earlier story about the rifle being found I called “BS”. Looks like it was real after all....
not the best travel case. appears to be soft-sided. not airline or TSA compliant.
makes nonsense to even take it to the airport lime that.
there is a story here ...
