Thieves in white car checking door handles in southwest Bethesda neighborhoods


A resident of Sumner reported that a group of people were walking the streets of that neighborhood around 4:30 AM last Friday morning checking car door handles, and rummaging through vehicles that were unlocked. They were being followed all the way by a white car, which the resident's doorbell camera documented, and which they have shared with police. The group was also spotted by another resident in the Springfield neighborhood, across Massachusetts Avenue, a favorite corridor of auto thieves.

Make sure your car doors are locked, and all valuables removed from the interior. Never leave your keys or key fob in the glove compartment or ignition. Report any suspicious activity to police at 301-279-8000, or 911 if it is an emergency.
