A reminder from your Citizens on Patrol:

The Forge fared well in 2011 compared to previous years. Let us all continue to work together as a community to continue this trend. Thank you all for your diligence and awareness this past year. It has made a difference in our community, but we must keep up this trend if we wish to continue living in a safe community.

We would also like to personally thank Rob Williams for his numerous hours out patrolling most every night of the year through all types of weather. Communicating with the officers in our area, watching out for peoples safety, property, contacting proper authorities for street lights out, coordinating special patrols throughout the year and assisting with statistic gathering.

Thank you also to all our patrollers who have also spent many hours patrolling the streets and alleys of the Forge.

Commercial Burglary Suspect Wanted

Baltimore County, Md. (January 10, 2012) - Baltimore County Police are asking for the public’s help in identifying the man responsible for multiple commercial burglaries in the Precinct 7/Cockeysville and Precinct 3/Franklin areas.

Detectives are currently investigating a string of burglaries targeting suites in office buildings along the York Road corridor in Precinct 7/Cockeysville. Five office buildings have been targeted since December 6, and in some cases, multiple suites were burglarized inside the building.

The burglaries are occurring during the evening and overnight hours, when the suspect gains access to the businesses by prying doors or breaking door glass. Money and checks, computer equipment, and food have been taken during some of the burglaries, and nothing at all was taken in several of the crimes.

Detectives have been able to link those cases to four other similar burglaries of office buildings that occurred in the 100-block of Painters Mill Road, the unit-block of Painters Mill Road, and the 10000-block of Reisterstown Road in December.

The suspect is described as a black male, 50 to 60 years old, 5’10” tall, with a thin build, and dark complexion.

Reward Offered

Anyone with information about the identity or whereabouts of the suspect is asked to call Baltimore County Police at 410-307-2020 or Metro Crime Stoppers at 1-866-7-LOCKUP (1-866-756-2587). To text a message to Metro Crime Stoppers, send to "CRIMES" (274637), then enter the message starting with "MCS," or e-mail a tip to www.metrocrimestoppers.org. Those contacting Metro Crime Stoppers can remain anonymous and might be eligible for a cash reward of up to $2,000.
