ORLANDO, Fla. — Raw: Surveillance shows teens in gun show robbery
Police said they have received tips that some of those responsible for the thefts could have ties to the Windsor Cove complex and might possibly have brought guns there.
Pastor Jake Stovall said he has joined the effort to find the guns and make his community safer.
"We want the guns off the street. They made a mistake, so let's fix it," Stovall said. "You will not get in any trouble, we just want the guns, that's it."
Police said Friday's efforts brought them valuable information.
They said tips have led to the arrests of Sonny Thorton, 19, Deshawn Sims, 19, and Quantavius Singleton, 22.
Stovall praised OPD's decision to approach residents. He said he saw police and residents begin to connect. He said he hopes the connections continue to grow.
