An officer with Jacksonville Sheriff's Office called police after he came home from work and found his back door kicked in around 3 a.m. on Tuesday.

He found blood smeared on a door, a large pool of blood on the floor and a shell casing, but his dog was not at the house.

The person who broke in stole the officer's 2010 Toyota Tacoma, two handguns and keys to a JSO patrol car, according to the report.
