On May 9th at around 6:20 a.m., police were dispatched to a vehicle burglary. Police made contact with the vehicle owner who stated their pickup truck was parked in the 500 block of Viking Drive. On the evening of May 8th the owner discovered that five firearms had been taken from the pickup. They are two rifles, a shotgun, a high powered pellet gun, and a BB gun. No signs of forced entry were noted by police.
Responsible gun ownership starts with being accountable for a firearm at all times. Vehicles make terrible gun safes. Never leave a firearm in an unlocked vehicle. Always lock your vehicle before leaving it unattended. Take valuable items inside, or conceal them if you must leave them in your vehicle.
