(1135ET)<\/strong><\/u>: It seems that\u00a0<strong>Mr. Plummer made a habit of getting the biological material he was working on &#8220;stolen,&#8221;<\/strong>\u00a0as we found a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.winnipegfreepress.com\/local\/lab-didnt-tell-police-22-vials-stolen-45078877.html\">report from 2009 in the Winnepeg Free Press<\/a>\u00a0that details the theft of 22 vials of biological material was &#8220;confirmed by scientific director Dr. Frank Plummer.&#8221;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Plummer, allegedly, alerted authorities to the missing material on the same day a former vaccine researcher was arrested by FBI special agents\u00a0<\/strong>after U.S. Customs discovered the vials stuffed in a glove in the trunk of his car at the Manitoba-North Dakota border crossing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Some of the vials included genes from the deadly Ebola virus<\/strong>, but local scientists say the material is not infectious.<\/p>\n<p>But more than a week after the theft came to light, police said no one from the lab has reported the incident.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Plummer has said the researcher signed a form declaring he did not steal anything from the lab and understood he was not allowed to.<\/strong>\u00a0The national lab does not conduct searches of staff when they exit the lab and does not routinely take inventory of the thousands of vials containing non-infectious biological substances.<\/p>\n<p>However,\u00a0<strong>court documents allege the former researcher stole the vials\u00a0<\/strong>on his last day of work at the virology lab in January\u00a0<strong>because &#8220;he did not want to start his research over from the beginning when he entered into his next fellowship&#8221;\u00a0<\/strong>with the National Institutes of Health at the Biodefense Research Laboratory in Maryland.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>All very curious.<\/p>\n<p>*\u00a0 *\u00a0 *<\/p>\n<p><a
