DALLAS — The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) Dallas Field Division is offering a $5,000 reward, combined with an additional $5,000 offered by the National Sports Shooting Foundation (NSSF), for a total reward of up to $10,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible for the burglary and theft of more than two-dozen firearms from a Cabela’s location in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.

On Monday, December 11, 2017, at approximately 4:30 a.m., an adult subject forced entry into Cabela’s located in the 1200 block of West Memorial Road. The suspect wore a dark hoodie, dark shorts, dark socks pulled up to the knee, dark gloves and a mask at the time of the burglary.

ATF is investigating the burglary in conjunction with the Oklahoma City Police Department (OCPD). Video of the burglary is available on the OCPD YouTube page by clicking here Theft of Guns from Cabelas - YouTube (link is external).
