Summerville Police are investigating a residential theft reported last week where a local man claims a rifle and hundreds of dollars went missing after a recent overnight guest had access to his home.

According to police records, Mr. Wofford informed officers that a .30-30 caliber rifle was stolen from his residence. Additionally, he reported approximately $200.00 had been withdrawn without authorization from his Chime bank account.
