Thieves broke into a gun shop overnight and made off with about a dozen guns, but they didn’t get far.
This happened at the Legendary Guns store on 19th Avenue, a block north of Camelback Road around 2:30 a.m. Wednesday.
Police believe two suspects smashed their way through a window in a vacant store a couple doors down from Legendary Guns. Then the smashed their way through a wall and into the gun shop.
The suspects scooped up some rifles and pistols — and even a 50 millimeter gun, which costs $14,000. But in the process, they tripped off an alarm. They tried to escape with the weapons, but abandoned that effort when they saw a police car driving by the store.
More police responded to the alarms. The officers, using a police dog, captured one suspect who was trying to hide in a recycling bin.
Authorities are still looking for another man who they believe was involved.
David Larue, the store’s owner, says it’s been a constant battle keeping thieves out of the store.-[source]
