Kansas City crooks stealing guns continues to trend in local party districts and across the metro.

Here's a bit of friendly advice from police . . .

Donna Drake with KCPD said they want gun owners to be responsible and prevent guns from getting into the wrong hands. She said ask yourself this, “how would I feel if my firearm was stolen and later used to hurt someone or God forbid, to kill someone?"

KCPD said unfortunately that has happened, where someone has used a stolen gun in a homicide and this time of year, the department sees an increase in guns stolen from cars.

"Our property crimes detectives want to warn people about the increase in gun thefts in vehicles and we are recommending if you can leave that at home, that's the safest way," she said.
