Gee, wonder who even knew the ammunition was there, and where it was stored ? Article did not say, but I would guess most of it was .40 S&W, 5.56 NATO, and probably some .30-06, or 7.62 x 51 NATO. Maybe some 12 ga 00 Buck. Thousands of rounds ?? You could put several thousand rounds in the trunk of a car. Or are we actually talking a couple of truck loads ?
Wonder if they have any weapons missing ?
Who took it, and WHEN ? Maybe Yogi Bear took it ?
