BATFE Offers Reward In Gun Store Robbery

By Tom Knighton

Officials with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives–which is, unfortunately, the name of a government agency and not the most awesome convenience store in the history of man–are asking for help from the public following the robbery of an Ohio gun store, and they’re willing to pay if that help lands them their bad guy.

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) and the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) – the trade association for the firearms industry – are announcing a reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible for the burglary of Elmore’s Firearms, located at 250 N. State Route 135, Greenwood, Indiana.

ATF is offering a reward of up to $2,500, which will be matched by the NSSF for a total possible reward of $5,000.

At approximately 2:45 a.m. on Nov. 15, 2017, an unknown individual or individuals forcibly gained entry into the building, taking seven handguns and two long guns. ATF is working with the Greenwood Police Department to investigate the incident.

Anyone having information about this burglary should contact ATF at 1-800-ATF-GUNS (800-283-4867). Individuals may also email [email protected] (link sends e-mail), or contact ATF through its website at www.atf.gov/contact/atf-tips. …Read the Rest
