FORWARD TWP — More than three dozen guns were reported stolen Monday, in a daylight break-in at a home on Needle Point Road in the township, authorities said.

State police said three suspects in a white sport utility vehicle burglarized the home about 8:30 a.m. A safe containing 38 guns was taken from a detached garage belonging to the victim, a 49-year-old man.

The firearms included both handguns and long guns, said police Cpl. Tim Morando.

Investigators have identified at least one of the suspects, a 23-year-old Evans City area man. They did not release his name.

Morando said police believe the suspects targeted the home knowing the guns were there. The investigation continues.

Anyone with information is asked to call police at 724-284-8100.
