Tires Stolen, Gun Found at High-End Dealership in East Windsor

East Windsor Police are investigating after a vehicle for sale in a high-end dealership was stripped of all four tires the same day that a loaded gun was found on the property.

Police said an investigation is under way to determine if the two are related.
