The MNPD strongly encourages Nashvillians to lock their automobile doors, secure any valuables-especially guns, and remove the keys.
So far this year, 646 guns have been stolen from vehicles in Nashville, 19 were taken from autos just last week. The total number of guns stolen this year in Davidson County is 865, which means that 74% of guns stolen so far in 2025 have been taken from automobiles. Last year at this same time, 604 guns had been stolen from vehicles.
Just like guns taken from vehicles, stolen autos are routinely involved in criminal activities, including carjackings and robberies.
