Brunswick police Sgt. Martin Rinaldi does not necessarily support a national registry for concealed-carr y permit holders, but expresses suppor t for one that requires police and medical evaluators to report data related to persons taken into protective custody or by voluntar y means for psychological evaluations that are not fully committed to an institution. Rinaldi said there is no statistical data to support a correlation between gun owners with concealed carry permits and gun violence. Because of a reporting error, his position was incorrectly stated in a story on Page A1 of Friday’s editions.
