INDIANAPOLIS — The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and
Explosives (ATF) and the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) – the trade
association for the firearms industry – are announcing a reward for information
leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible for the burglary of
Elmore’s Firearms, located at 250 N. State Route 135, Greenwood, Indiana.
ATF is offering a reward of up to $2,500, which will be
matched by the NSSF for a total possible reward of $5,000.
At approximately 2:45 a.m. on Nov. 15, 2017, an unknown
individual or individuals forcibly gained entry into the building, taking seven
handguns and two long guns. ATF is working with the Greenwood Police Department
to investigate the incident.

This reward is part of a larger national cooperative
initiative between the NSSF and ATF in which NSSF matches ATF rewards in cases
involving the theft of firearms from federally licensed retailers. ATF works closely with the members of the
firearms industry to curb the criminal acquisition and misuse of firearms.
