NEWARK, Ohio — More than a dozen guns were stolen from a Newark gun store after three suspects crashed an SUV into the front glass of the business, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) said.
Columbus police said a vehicle stolen at gunpoint late Monday night is believed to be the SUV that crashed into Buckeye Gun Dealer on North 21st Street around 2 a.m. Tuesday.
The store owner said the business will be closed "for a little while" as the damage is repaired.
The ATF is offering a $5,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the suspects.
Anyone with information is asked to call the ATF at 1-888-283-8477 or e-mail the agency at ATFTips@atf.gov.
