Cache of guns and ammunition stolen

Authorities are investigating the theft of several firearms, hundreds of dollars worth of ammunition and a few other items that were kept in a privately owned school bus parked at a storage facility near Emerald.

The stolen guns include: Olympic models AK-47 and AR-15, a Ruger 9mm pistol, a Colt .38 caliber Cobra pistol, a Winchester .22 caliber rifle and a Remington model 7400 rifle with scope.

Among the variety of ammunition stolen was a wooden crate containing 5,000 rifle rounds.

Authorities believe someone broke into the locked 1995 International school bus sometime within the past five months and stole the items, as well as 50 DVDs, a power inverter, a digital camera and a bone handled hunting knife. The theft was reported Sunday.

The guns were all privately and legally owned, said Lancaster County Sheriff's Sgt. John Vik. An incident report lists the owner as a 65-year-old Lincoln resident.

Vik said it is unknown whether the weapons have since been used in a crime. He declined to discuss whether authorities have any suspects in the case. No arrests had been made as of Monday evening.

Seriously? All that was kept in a "locked" school bus? Which was obviously not checked on more the a couple times a year.  I'm sure he's a good guy, but what the hell did he think was going go happen? Extremely irresponsible in my book.

Probably opened his mouth to the wrong person about all of his "stored" items.

I'm just thinking if that 5000 rounds was .22LR, that's like losing a chest of gold.
