A burglar made off with automatic rifles and nearly 2,000 rounds of ammunition in a home burglary in Annapolis on Saturday, police said.

A man from Windwhisper Lane in Annapolis came home to find a burglar had taken approximately $3,100 worth of items, including four guns, a camera and 1,700 rounds of ammunition, according to a police report.

Taken from the home were an M1 Carbine rifle, an SKS semi-automatic rifle, a Browning semi-automatic pistol, a Marlin lever-action rifle, a 35 mm Sea Life camera, and an assortment of bullets wrapped in boxes and plastic, according to the report.

The victim told police that he left his home at about 7 p.m. the night of the burglary, and came home six hours later to find the home had been broken into.
