Robbery
Unit detectives today released surveillance video of the suspect who has now
robbed five businesses in the county in 10 days. The video starts with clear
images of the suspect, as he walks in and out of the frame. This was recorded
minutes after he recently robbed a convenience store. Next, there is video of
the suspect robbing a second convenience store, this one on Marlboro Pike. The
suspect is seen pulling out a gun and demanding cash from the employees.

The
suspect committed his most recent crime on Wednesday. He targeted a pawn shop
in the 5000 block of Martin Luther King Junior Highway in Seat Pleasant at
approximately 6:35 pm. He wore a distinct outfit to include an orange hat and a
black-and-white scarf. He did pull out a gun during the robbery.

The
suspect wore the same clothing on Tuesday evening when he robbed a convenience
store in the 6000 block of Marlboro Pike in District Heights. He again used a
gun and demanded money from employees.

The
same suspect is also linked to a robbery of a pizza store in Oxon Hill on March
17th. He walked into the business on Oxon Hill Road, displayed a gun and
demanded cash. Investigators have also since linked the suspect to robbing
another pizza shop – this one on Temple Hill Road on March 24th.
In that case, he also displayed a gun and demanded cash.

are urged to call 301-772-4905 or 1-866-411-TIPS. A cash reward is being
