GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. – Three people have been arrested and two guns that were stolen from the Grandville Cabela’s have been recovered by Grand Rapids Police.

On Tuesday morning, police say they recovered a .40 caliber handgun that had been stolen in Cabela’s theft after they heard gunshots during an unrelated investigation.  The 20-year-old suspect was arrested for Carrying a Concealed Weapon and several outstanding warrants.  The gun was loaded with 16 rounds of ammunition, according to police.

Four other teens were arrested in connection with the thefts over the weekend and several other guns were recovered.
