Beltsville burglary
Police say officers responded to the store, located at 13605 Connecticut Ave.,
around 9:30 a.m. for a burglary that had been discovered by an employee arriving
to open the store. Video surveillance captured the suspects enter the business'
rear door just after 6 a.m. Police say one suspect is seen prying open a safe,
and both suspects can be seen stealing cellphones from the safe. Police say they
also stole cash from the business and are seen leaving the store at 6:25 a.m.
(Note: Police say the time stamp shown on the surveillance video is incorrect).
The total value of the stolen cellphones is over $57,000. Police believe that
