Potentially Explosive Burglary In Bartlett

Dynamite, ammo stolen during Bartlett burglary

I found this story by perusing the Bartlett Police Department's Facebook page, where daily reports are posted.  I noticed dynamite and a load of ammo were among the items stolen from a homeowner's storage shed.  He didn't want to talk on camera but told me over the phone that he knew the shed wasn't properly secured.  The fact that explosives were taken alarmed some neighbors.  The owner said he used it to blow up stumps.  Many in the neighborhood have joined NextDoor.com (a neighborhood watch site) as a result of this and other recent property crimes.
