Another wave of overnight commercial burglaries swept over the Bethesda area early yesterday morning, stretching from Friendship Heights to Glen Echo, Cabin John and Potomac. Montgomery County police responded to a burglar alarm at an unspecified clothing store in the 5500 block of Wisconsin Avenue in Friendship Heights at 1:39 AM Monday morning, August 1, 2022. Police responded next to the alarm at the Montgomery County liquor store at 10132 River Road in Potomac at 2:24 AM, Market on the Boulevard at 7945 MacArthur Boulevard in Cabin John at 2:34 AM, and the Glen Echo Pharmacy at 7311 MacArthur Boulevard at 5:37 AM.
Officers found evidence of forced entry at each establishment. A rash of commercial burglaries covered some of the same territory along with the Westwood Shopping Center on June 24, a Bethesda Dunkin' Donuts/Baskin Robbins was broken into July 15, and Smoke BBQ in downtown Bethesda was hit last weekend.

These have nothing to do with the soft-on-crime attitude of Democrats nowadays.
These crimes are the direct failure of our society to provide a fair opportunity for all.
We can spend billions funding the middle class of our legal professions, or we can spend billions on our educational, social, get along and don't shoot professions.
It's a tough call. Can we agree to move our money back and forth between as needed
Unfortunately the people in charge now don't believe in equal opportunity but try to force equal outcomes.
Progressive prosecutors release repeat offenders that only murder gets any attention from their office and then they blame the guns instead of the perpetrators. DC is on the way to becoming Baltimore in terms of shootings and violent crime and is spilling into MD where the executive is more concerned about proper pronouns than safety of the the citizens.
The adage of economics applies here as an analogy: Want more of it? Subsidize it. Want less of it? Tax it.
"These crimes are the direct failure of our society to provide a fair opportunity for all."
Bull. These crimes are the direct failure of parents to raise children to respect other people, aided by weak politicians and policy makers, namely Democrats.
@6:53 PM: "These crimes are the direct failure of our society to provide a fair opportunity for all."
As 4:59 AM said, these criminals were failed first by their parents. The woke politicians and prosecutors then excused and compounded that failure, and here were are with career criminals who have no respect for society.
