The Calvert County Sheriff’s Office has investigated 8
vehicle thefts since September 19, 2015.
The vehicle thefts have occurred from Dunkirk to Huntingtown. All vehicles that has been stolen were left
unlocked with the keys either in the ignition or within the vehicle itself. The vehicles have all been located at various
locations in the Prince Frederick and Huntingtown areas of Calvert County. The thefts have occurred during the late
night/early morning hours. Several items
within the vehicles have been removed and there have been thefts in the
surrounding areas from where vehicles have been taken. The latest vehicle, which was stolen on
October 29, 2015, had a loaded 20 gauge single barrel shotgun with a scope
mounted on it left inside of it. When
the vehicle was recovered the shotgun was no longer inside.
The Sheriff’s Office investigated numerous vehicle thefts
where the suspect used the same modus operandi in 2010 and 2011. It is believed the recent thefts
are being committed by the same suspect that stole the vehicles then. Sheriff’s Office personnel are working
diligently, dedicating every available resource to these cases in an attempt to
apprehend the suspect.
Sheriff Mike Evans is requesting the citizens of Calvert
County assist us by locking their vehicles and removing any items of value from
within them. In addition citizens are
being asked to relay this message to family and friends via social media
outlets, community meetings, neighborhood watches etc.
