The suspect tried to get away on an adult tricycle, police said.

The suspect was caught, and most of the guns were found on the property and on the suspect, police said.

According to store managers, the suspect cut a hole in the roof, then dropped down into the store, possibly using a rope. He smashed the glass casing that held the guns and removed them, authorities said.

Officers said the man climbed back through the hole while holding the guns and tried to get away.
