BETHESDA BLING RING BURGLARS MAY HAVE STRUCK AGAIN

What a wacky week in crime it's been.  The same day the Phantom Hugger was possibly involved in a Georgetown attack, a break-in fitting the pattern of the Bling Ring burglars occurred in Chevy Chase.

Sunday's burglary took place only a few blocks from Dorset Avenue, where the Bling Ring struck twice on the same block in recent weeks.  This time, it was in the 4700 block of Drummond Avenue.

Old haunts, and old money neighborhoods.  Yes, this sounds like the work of the Bling Ring, which has slowed the pace of its crimes recently.
