Cops: Photos Show Loughner Wearing Red G-String, Holding Glock

Before he allegedly went on a mass killing spree Saturday, Jared Lee Loughner had photos of himself developed at a local Walgreens that showed him dressed in a bright red g-string, a Glock 9mm gun next to his naked buttocks, the New York Times reports.

Law enforcement sources told the newspaper that the photos, turned over by Walgreens, showed Loughner holding the gun by his crotch. It is not clear when the photos, presumably shot in a mirror, were taken.

The newspaper reported that the Pima Sheriff’s Office said that Loughner had two 15-round magazines; a four-inch buck knife; a plastic bag containing money; a Visa card; and his driver’s license in his pockets when he was arrested Saturday.
