ATF Seeks to Identify Suspect
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

This reward is part of a larger national cooperative
initiative between the NSSF, the trade association for the firearms industry,
and ATF in which NSSF matches ATF’s reward in cases involving the theft of
firearms from federally licensed firearms retailers.
