6 arrested in gun store burglary spree that stole 300 firearms in Southern California

Six men have been arrested and charged with being part of a group that used stolen cars to ram gun stores around Southern California and grab a total of more than 300 firearms.

The burglaries include Fowler’s Gun Room in Orange, where a group of men used a stolen Kia sedan, reversed it into the shop and stole 70 firearms early Saturday morning, federal and local law enforcement officials said.

The men are being charged with conspiracy to steal the weapons from the premises of federal firearms licensees, authorities said.
