It was a sight that would catch anyone’s eye. On
September 24th, shortly before 1:00 p.m., a Prince George’s County
Police officer spotted a man carrying a five-gallon water jug filled with money
in the 1700 block of Countrywood Court in Landover. When the
officer tried to strike up a conversation, the man dropped the jug and ran.
The officer called for backup. The suspect was soon spotted near a
wooded area. After a short foot chase, officers arrested 19 year-old
Demetrius Jerome Coles of the 5100 block of Cumberland Street in Capitol
Heights. Officers also recovered a
flat screen television in a nearby wooded area. Officers also noticed the
front door of a home had been kicked in on Countrywood Court, the area where
the alert officer first spotted Coles carrying the water jug. The jug had
approximately $750 inside. Coles is facing first degree breaking and
entering and other charges.
