Officer's gun stolen from car, Suspect at large

Police are continuing to search for a suspect who broke into an officer's car earlier this week and stole his department issued shotgun.

The Metro police officer said the gun was in the truck of his car parked outside of his home located on Sunray Drive in Murfreesboro on Monday when the crime occurred.

The officer reported that his vehicle's keyless entry was not working properly, which allowed the suspect to gain access to the car.

Authorities located the gun a short time later.

Police are investigating into whether any policies were broken.

Anyone with information on the incident or the suspect's whereabouts is urged to contact Crime Stoppers at 74-CRIME.
