KRUM (WBAP/KLIF) – The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, Denton County Sheriff’s Department, and the National Shooting Sports Foundation, on Friday, announced a reward of up to $10,000 for information leading to the identification and/or arrest of the suspect responsible for the theft of 21 firearms from Top Dog Gun Range in Krum.
According to the ATF, just after 2 a.m. on September 14, the suspect entered the business by circumventing the locking mechanism on the rear door. Once inside the property, the suspect proceeded to steal 21 firearms. Surveillance video shows the suspect entering the business through the rear door and continuing to the front of the building to remove firearms from the display case. Authorities said the unidentified suspect was wearing a baseball-type cap, eyeglasses, and a gaiter that covered his face. He had on a long sleeve shirt with a logo depicting the letters “LTR” underscored by a lightning bolt and distinctive tennis shoes. Investigative research shows the logo is registered to a defunct business named Lighting Tower Rental.
“Recovering these firearms quickly before additional crimes are committed remains a top priority for ATF. We are asking the public to please let authorities know if you recognize this individual,” ATF Dallas Special Agent in Charge Jeffrey C Boshek II said.
Anyone with any information about this crime should contact ATF at 1-888-ATFTIPS. Information can also be sent to ATFTips@atf.gov.
