<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">STEVENSVILLE, MD. &#8212; Queen Anne&#8217;s County Sherriff Gary Hofmann reports that the alarm at Chesapeake Guns was set off with a deputy responding arriving within 10 minutes. The owner also had been notified and responded, meeting with the deputy on the scene. It was believed that the business was secure and that it was a false alarm.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Later in the </span>morning<span style="font-size: 12pt;"> the co-owner arrived to open and observed drywall and insulation on the floor and called the Queen Anne&#8217;s County Sheriff’s Office. It was discovered at that time that a neighboring vacant unit had been burglarized and that entry into the gun shop was made thru the wall.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Once inside 6-8 long guns and 6-8 handguns were taken from display cases. A review of security recordings reveals that</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> two subjects in light colored clothing with hoods and gloves taking the weapons and quickly exiting back thru the hole in the wall.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The store has not completed their inventory at this time; however, police say that</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> it is verified that two of the guns were a 12 Gauge Mossberg pump and a Browning 9mm handgun.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Anyone with information or who may have seen a suspicious vehicle in the area is urged to call the Queen Anne&#8217;s Sheriff’s Criminal Investigation Unit at (410) 758-0770. Tips can also be emailed to sheriff-info@qac.org or PM the Sheriff’s Office Facebook page.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">DEPUTY: Detective Maria Bassaro &; Det. Amelia VanSant</span></p>
