I probably misread the article but did it say the drugs belonged to a victim? Could they not have been the perps?

No, it stated the hydrocodone was stolen from a golf cart. The golf cart was in the driveway at 2 am. Why have hydrocodone ( a controlled narcotic) in your golf cart?
How did a thief know which cart to burgle?

He probably burgled a bunch of carts until he struck gold.
Why was it there? Probably just a oversight.
I think it would be harder to forget a handgun in an unlocked car!
Maybe not, I don't own a gun. Perhaps people that own guns tend to get careless with them?

I was curious about this charge: "Armed burglary to a conveyance."

"If you are accused of entering the conveyance while armed with a dangerous weapon, or take possession of a weapon you find inside the car or boat: this offense becomes “Armed Burglary,” a felony of the first degree and punishable by up to life in prison."

Or release on bond and more crime so he can "earn" the bond money back - and then skip out on the bond.

Dang, I am cynical before my second cup of coffee.

Re: "people who own guns" Handgun safety training is requisite before a permit to carry is issued. No licensed gun owner I know would risk losing that right to carelessness.

It's possible the guns were not stolen from the vehicles, but from somewhere else, then found in the perps' car along with the stolen drugs.
