Strong-arm robbery outside Montgomery County courthouse in Rockville


How strong and confident are Montgomery County criminals feeling these days, amidst their six-year crime wave? Confident enough to assault and rob someone in broad daylight outside of the Montgomery County Circuit Courthouse in Rockville. That's what Montgomery County police say happened yesterday afternoon at 3:21 PM. A suspect assaulted a victim, grabbed unspecified "personal property," and fled on foot. Police have not released a description of the suspect, and did not indicate how the suspect avoided appearing on the many surveillance cameras in the government center area.

    2. I see where " safer communities " is part of his reelection campaign 😆 what a joke,but I'm sure Maryland will keep voting for the same nonsense.

    3. Successful re-election is the common thread among all our elected officials. But, they are running against themselves!

  2. Less than a year ago I got a call from a scammer spoofing the Montgomery County PD, telling me I had failed to show up for court and needed to come to the court house "RIGHT NOW". This could have been how this started or my experience could have led to a similar story. I called Nonemergency police to tell them and they correctly said "If we're looking for you, we'll come get you".

    1. I think the Court would send you notice to appear. I wouldn't believe someone on the phone.

    2. These phone scams are prevalent nationwide and reported repeatedly by most legitimate news agencies. If you fall for these your are simply a FOOL!

  4. I'm sure the MoCo Exec and Council discouraged MCPD daily presence near the Courthouse so as not to frighten the criminals. With predictable results....

  5. And to add insult to injury he is running for
    a councilmember At-Large.
