Remove Items of Value from Vehicles

The St. Mary's County Sheriff's Office continues to investigate reports of burglary to motor vehicles.  In many of the cases, items of value such as loose change, electronics, purses, etc. have been left visible inside of vehicles. The St. Mary's County Sheriff's Office is encouraging citizens to remove items of value from their vehicles when the vehicles are parked, and for citizens to be vigilant in locking their vehicles.

Anyone with information on the burglaries to motor vehicles is asked to contact the St. Mary's County Sheriff's Office at (301) 475-8008.  Citizens may remain anonymous and contact Crime Solvers at (301) 475-3333, or text a tip to "TIP239" plus their message to "CRIMES" (274637).  Through the Crime Solvers Program tipsters are eligible for an award of up to $1,000 for information about a crime in St. Mary's County that leads to an arrest or indictment.
