Arlington police search for gun store burglars
Police are searching for the burglars who made off with as many as 50 weapons from a gun store in the 800 block of Avenue H East early Thursday.
Officers responding to a commercial alarm arrived at the store about 3 a.m., but the thieves had left.
The store owners reported that more than 50 weapons were stolen, according to a news release from the Arlington Police Department.
A witness at a neighboring business told police that the burglars appeared to have left in a black Ford F-350 pickup, the release said.
Agents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms were notified and are investigating.
