The Royal Newfoundland Constabulary (RNC) is requesting the public’s help after firearms were stolen following a break-and-enter in Torbay.

Between 4:30 a.m. and 5:30 a.m. on Monday, May 5^th, two men entered a property on Torbay Road and left the scene in the homeowner’s truck. The vehicle is described as a 2022 Ford F150, grey in colour, with the licence plate CH3-917.

Three firearms, which had been stored in a gun safe, were taken. They’re described as:
