Police in Fort Pierce are searching for weapons stolen Saturday night from a security officer’s vehicle at Indian River State College.
The crime happened between 6 p.m. and 10:30 p.m.
Police said the stolen weapons are a Kimber 45 caliber pistol, a Bushmaster AR 223 rifle and a Colt M4 Carbine 5.56mm with loaded magazines. A Fort Pierce police badge was also taken.
Police said the security officer is Hall Solomon, a retired Fort Pierce police officer.
They said Solomon was on duty when someone pried open one of the vehicle doors and stole the weapons.
Solomon said when he returned to his truck to get something, he noticed that his weapons were missing. He said each one was in a separate gun case and losses total about $4,000.
Police confirm that the weapons were from Solomon’s personal collection. Solomon said he’s also a gun dealer.
Detectives are hoping finger prints from Solomon’s vehicle can lead to an arrest. There’s no suspect information at this time.
If you have any information about this crime, call the Fort Pierce Police Department.
