The St. Mary’s County Sheriff’s Office received a report of rocks in the road on Piney Point Road on Oct. 7, 2018, but no report of the driver being attacked. The Sheriff’s Office was indirectly notified of a reported assault on Oct. 16, 2018 at Route 235 and St. John’s Road in Hollywood, but no robbery occurred. The case is still under investigation.
At this time, there is no reason to believe the two incidents are related and we have no other reports of this nature.
If roadside attacks had been reported to the Sheriff’s Office, the Public Information Office would immediately alert the public to such activity.
