ATF Offers Reward for Information on Armed Robbery of Quick Cash Pawn in Greensboro


CHARLOTTE, N.C. – The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) today announced a reward of up to $5,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible for the recent armed robbery of Quick Cash Pawn, a federal firearm licensee (FFL) in Greensboro, N.C.

At approximately 2:33 p.m. on Monday, November 5, 2018, two individuals entered Quick Cash Pawn on 2707 South Elm-Eugene St. in Greensboro and threatened the store employees at gunpoint. No one was injured during the robbery, but the suspects took both money and firearms from the business. The suspects had also been seen inside of Quick Cash Pawn earlier that same day.    

ATF is assisting the Greensboro Police Department in this investigation. Anyone with information should contact ATF at 1-800-ATF-GUNS (800-283-4867), email ATFTips@atf.gov, or contact ATF through its website at www.atf.gov/contact/atf-tips.

All calls and tips will be kept confidential.

ATF along with our law enforcement partners are committed to ensuring that our communities are safe, and that those who commit violent crimes such as this are held accountable. The 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 firearms retailers. ATF works closely with members of the firearms industry to curb the criminal acquisition and misuse of firearms.
