Criminals foil background checks: Firearms stolen from home
5:05am Friday, April 01, 2005
The Lancaster Eagle Gazette is reporting that someone broke into a home in the 4600 block of Pine Grove Road, Amanda between 3 p.m. Monday and 12:30 a.m. Tuesday. Stolen items included six rifles and shotguns along with a 9 mm pistol, a holster, and 320 rounds of reloaded ammunition. The value of the loss was not estimated.
It is highly typical in cases like these that the thief knows what he is looking for, knows where to find it, and knows when the firearms owner will be away from the home. This type of research takes time and effort. Thanks to news media abuse of the Media Access Loophole, the potential for knowing where to find firearms to steal is made much, much easier.
