About 25 handguns were stolen from a Rapid City sporting goods store on Sunday morning, and local police are very eager to see them returned safely.

According to the Rapid City Police Department, officers responded to The Rooster sporting good store on West Main Street around 7:10 a.m. on Sunday, and found that the store’s front glass door had been smashed with a large rock.

The store owner told police that the only merchandise taken was 25 handguns, which were in a display case.

Rapid City Police Chief Karl Jegeris is urging anyone with information on the burglary to report it to the police. “It is extremely concerning that this many stolen handguns are in the hands of criminals in our community,” he said in a news release.

The police department said that anyone with information on the burglary can contact Detective Dan Trainer at (605) 394-4134 or send an anonymous tip by texting “RCPD” and the information to 847411.
