Burglary Investigation

Police are looking for three people that broke into a gun store.

Good evening everyone... police are looking for three people that broke into a gun store...led officers on a chase and are still on the run tonight... this security video shows the men breaking into "2 a armanents" in downtown new albany around 3 30 this morning.

A passerby noticed the burglary and called 9 1 1.

Officers spotted the suspect's car, and a chase began.

That chase went to holly springs on i 22, where police deployed spike strips.

New albany police chief chris robertson says the three black males ran from the car but left most of the weapons in the car.

"the guns taken this time were assault style weapons and semi automatic pistols, had these weapons got on the black market, there's no doubt in my mind they would end up harming someone, so it's very important and i'm thankful , us and other agencies got vehicle stopped and weapons recovered before they got on the streets."

Robertson says a safe was also found in the suspects' car, which was stolen from a convenience store, before the gun store burglary.

He believes the guns would have been sold on the streets.
