Some thieves in Melrose Park were so determined to steal firearms early Wednesday that they smashed a stolen car right through the front of a gun shop.
As CBS 2's Sabrina Franza reported, sources said it is not just a matter of whether guns were stolen at Suburban Sporting Goods Guns & Ammo, at 2306 W. North Ave. in Melrose Park, but how many were stolen – and not just during this specific break-in.
"A car went right through the parking lot and went straight into it," said the manager of a nearby pawn shop, who did not want her name used. "I think they know that there's cameras," the witness said."These are guys that know that have actually been here.". He was accused of stealing weapons from the same store.
