Four Arrested in South Nashville Gun Store Break-In

NASHVILLE, TN — Metro Police arrested four people early Tuesday morning for allegedly trying to rob a gun store.

The alarm at Shooter's at 573 Murfreesboro Road went off around 5:15 Tuesday morning. When police arrived, they saw no immediate signs of forced entry, such as broken windows, but did notice a car parked beside a nearby abandoned building.

Police blocked in the car and arrested an adult male and juvenile female when they returned to the car.

Meanwhile, other officers saw that the back door of the gun store had been kicked in and that a pipe had been used to bust through the drywall.

While they were investigating, two other men arrived on the scene and asked police what was going on. One of those men had drywall dust on his pants. That pair of men was also arrested.
