Thieves broke into the Dinwiddie Sporting Goods store last night and stole 12 handguns of various makes and models, the sheriff's office said today.
The intruders peeled back the siding of the sheet metal building at 7800 Boydton Plan Road to get inside about 10:30 p.m., tripping an alarm, said Dinwiddie Sheriff's Capt. William Knott.
"From what I understand it wasn't a big hole, just big enough for a person to squeeze through," Knott said. "They basically went through the insulation and inner-wall to get in the building," he said.
The stolen weapons included 9 mm, .40-caliber, .45-caliber and .380-caliber pistols. "The biggest number taken were 9 mms," Knott said.
There was no surveillance camera footage of the break-in, he added.
Anyone with information about the breakin can call the Dinwiddie Sheriff's Office at (804) 469-4550 or the Petersburg/Dinwiddie Crime Solvers at (804) 861-1212.
