If you’re asking me, it was sometime during the day while we were at work.

Decent outcome; however, the homeowner needs to spend some more time on the range.

Not that it matters much, but this happened on the Missouri side, not the Kansas side.

I grew up not far from 60th and Agnes, and the zipcode here, 64130, has been said to be the most crime ridden area in America. Right in the heart of the Kansas City ghetto.

The break in at our house was in the day time while we went out for lunch. They ransacked the place. Fortunately, we were better at hiding than they were at finding. It could have been much worse.
