Trenton police find 14 guns, arrest 3 in Pa. gun store burglary

TRENTON, N.J. (CBS) -- Three juveniles were arrested overnight after police say they stole a car, burglarized a Bucks County gun store and fled across the river.
Now police are sorting through a collection of 14 guns -- 10 rifles and four handguns -- they say were stolen from the LugerMan store on Old Lincoln Highway in Middletown Township, Pennsylvania.
Investigators believe around 3 a.m. the suspects entered the store through a second-floor window and someone opened it from the inside. The door handle at the store was broken as well.
After the alleged burglary, police tailed the suspects and followed them into Trenton, where the car crashed on Route 29. There was then a short foot pursuit before the suspects were arrested on Hanover Street.

I just heard this on the radio this afternoon. Thankfully they got them because it took them a long time to even try to get into the gun shop (which it should have), but they managed to anyway and almost got away with that stash and dumping even more guns onto the streets.
"Across the river" (from PA into NJ) = "interstate commerce" = "feds" will be getting involved.
