A North Grove Street resident told Bowling Green police that he had been camping in the woods across from the recycling center on East Poe Road on Oct. 9.

He told police that at approximately 1 p.m. he left his campsite and returned at approximately 7 p.m. and found his tent and campsite ransacked, according to the Bowling Green Police Division report.

He reported a 40-caliber Sears black powder muzzle loader with a running rabbit on the right side was stolen, and was valued between $10,000 and $20,000. Also taken was a rookie Nolan Ryan baseball card, which he said was valued between $10,000 and $20,000.
