The FBI is offering a $5,000 reward for information leading to the recovery of a missing rifle and tactical gear taken from an Idaho agent's unmarked car last week.

Missing is a Remington .308-caliber rifle with a scope and a black custom stock and a black carrying case, FBI spokesman Bill Wright said. Also taken was a bullet-proof vest, a jumpsuit and a protective helmet. All are black and marked with white "FBI" lettering, although the items are similar to commercially available merchandise, Wright said.

The gear was taken April 20 after someone broke the windows of an agent's sport utility vehicle, which was parked overnight at the Country Inn & Suites in South Jordan. The incident is being investigated jointly by the FBI and South Jordan police. All the equipment can be identified by serial numbers that have been entered into the National Criminal Information Center (NCIC) database.

Anyone with information about the rifle and other equipment can contact the FBI at (801) 579-1400.
