According to the police department’s Facebook page, surveillance captured the suspect on video breaking into a car parked on the 13000 block of Rippling Brook Drive.   Detectives believe the same person is responsible for stealing items from another car parked on the 2900 block of Bluff Point Lane.

Anyone with information about this suspect is asked to call the 4th District 240.773.5475. Those who wish to remain anonymous may call Crime Solvers of Montgomery County toll-free at 1.866.411.TIPS (8477).
