Police on North Carolina’s Outer Banks say at least 14 guns have been stolen as the result of break-ins during the last two months.
The Kill Devil Hills Police Department posted to its Facebook page that there have been a “hundred or so” break-ins since August. They also said 95 percent of the break-ins involved cars that weren’t locked.
Authorities are reminding residents to lock their cars and keep valuables out of sight.
A reward is being offered for information that will lead to the arrest of those responsible for the gun thefts.
