♦ Most murders and armed robberies are committed with stolen firearms. Those firearms are often obtained through breaking into vehicles, homes, gun shops and pawn shops. Home and vehicle owners best exercise caution in storing and securing their firearms especially if they live in Salisbury or in Rowan County where criminals are on the prowl for ammo and guns. Expensive firearms also may be sold or bartered for drugs. If you have a large firearms collection be careful to whom you show it. Store you weapons out of sight if you have service people coming to your home. Word gets out.
