Two kids have been arrested for stealing nearly two dozen guns from a firearms dealer.
The children, aged 11 and 14, are accused of breaking into Guns 4 Less on Del Prado Blvd S. in Cape Coral.
During a news conference, Cape Coral Police Department spokeswoman Julie Green said the pair tried to cut the power to the business before getting inside.
The store owner got an alert on her phone as the store was being broken into. She checked her surveillance cameras and saw the two kids inside the store. That’s when she called the police.
As police responded, they said the two kids ran in different directions; however, police were able to catch both of them and recover all the stolen items.
The back door of Guns-4-Less in Cape Coral was left damaged from the break-in. It is where Cape Coral police say the two young brothers broke in after trying to cut the power to the building.
“How did these young boys learn to even attempt to cut the power to a building? Most people aren’t going to know that,” said WINK News Safety and Security Specialist Rich Kolko.
Once inside, investigators say the two ransacked the store, smashing display cases and stealing 22 guns, ammo, and other items.

Well now, it looks like the kids are getting their FL Man on early.
