This is not a new story. It was reported within days of Katrina. At the time, the reporting justified the police action with the excuse that the NO police had lost most of their vehicles to floodwaters and needed the wheels.

Of course, the question needs to be asked: "Where are the Escalades now?"

Agreed. I'll give them a pass if NOPD cars were out of service. Heck, I'm sure the dealership would be pleased to be of service.

I'd be interested at there take on this. But then we are still begging the question, "Where are the Escalades now?"

The article says it was a Cadillac CHEVROLET dealership. Odd they chose the Escalades over the Tahoes and Suburbans.
