BENTON, Maine (AP) – Police say two masked men took cash and 10 handguns in a late-night robbery of a country store in central Maine.
Kennebec County Sheriff Randall Liberty says two men – one with a baseball bat, the other with a metal pipe – entered Bob’s County Store in Benton at about 10:10 p.m. Sunday and ordered the clerks to hand over the money from two cash registers.
After receiving the cash, the men smashed a display case and took handuns that were on display. The stolen firearms were valued at $6,000.
Liberty says the stolen guns included a Walther P22, a Taurus .25, a Ruger Super RedHawk .454 and a Beretta 92FS.
