18 INCIDENTS IN ONE WEEK:
WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?
Another Robert Dyer @ Bethesda Row Exclusive!!!
At least no homes were broken into Friday! The latest crime reports out of West Bethesda indicate that a bizarre crime spree continues there.
A rampage that has included 9 incidents of breaking-and-entering since Friday, May 4, added 4 more thefts Friday, May 11, according to SpotCrime.
Two cars were stolen that day, one in the ultra-wealthy neighborhood of Kenwood, and one in the 5400 block of Wisconsin Avenue in Friendship Heights. The crime wave has been centered in the Bethesda community of Green Acres off River Road, where the majority of cases were reported.
Green Acres is adjacent to Friendship Heights. No details have been released on any of the crimes so far, but I would just speculate that the only parking facility in the block of 5400 Wisconsin is the Wisconsin Place garage. I believe the building across 355 is considered to be Wisconsin Circle.
Besides the stolen cars, thefts were reported at the Westwood Shopping Center on Westbard Avenue, and in the 4400 block of S. Park Avenue in Friendship Heights (noticing a pattern here?).
I have yet to hear any statement from Montgomery County or the police department regarding the crime spree.
