Weapons were stolen from an Army Reserve center in Worcester, Massachusetts, the FBI said.

The agency and local police are searching for the weapons, spokeswoman Kristen Setera said late Sunday. They were found to be missing after a break-in at the Lake St. Army Reserve Center.

CNN affiliate WCVB reported that the break-in occurred late Saturday.

“We have entered those weapons into NCIC, a national database, and alerted our federal, state and local law enforcement partners,” Setera said.

“There is no indication that these missing weapons are connected to any kind of terrorism threat whatsoever. Nevertheless, every effort will be made to recover these weapons immediately,” she said.

The FBI did not say what kind of weapons went missing.
