Theft from Auto in Waldorf Leads to Recovery of Stolen Truck

December 22, 2021

On December 21, 2021, at approximately 2:22 a.m., officers from the Charles County Sheriff’s Office responded to the 13100 block of Hickory Avenue in Waldorf for the report of an individual breaking into a car and rummaging through it.

Upon arrival, officers observed a male sitting in a black Ford F150 nearby. As the officer approached, the driver accelerated and drove across the front yard of a house, and struck a utility pole. The driver jumped out of the truck and fled.

A computer check revealed the truck was reported stolen in another county. A K9 team conducted a track along the area the suspect ran and recovered evidence.

Anyone with information is asked to call Officer Barry at 301-932-2222.
