Up to 20 stolen guns are on the street after the burglary of a Beloit home earlier this week.

While police have arrested five Beloit teens in connection with the burglary, Captain Bill Tyler says they're also interested in the whereabouts of a 17-year-old from Janesville. Tyler says police found the empty gun safe Thursday in a rural area west of Beloit. He says the crime is of particular concern because stolen weapons tend to pass through a lot of hands and are involved in dangerous situations.
