DATE: Over the Last Couple Weeks
LOCATION: Wicomico and Worcester Counties
NARRATIVE: Over the last couple of weeks the Wicomico Sheriff’s Office and the Maryland State Police in Wicomico County have experienced a rise in the report of thefts from vehicles, Rogue and Vagabond investigations.
Victims have found in the morning that their vehicles have been broken into and that items have been taken. In most cases it involves the theft of items that include credit cards. Ultimately the suspect uses the credit cards for personal gain. The Rogue and Vagabonds are not restricted to a given area in Wicomico County. Detectives are asking the public to view the attached photos of a possible suspect and suspect vehicle and if anyone has any information about
them to contact the WBI.
WBI is also reminding the public to be careful about the placement of personal items within view inside their given vehicles. WBI is asking the public to remove the items from clear view by placing them possibly in the trunk of the vehicle or taking them in their residence. We believe the suspect is spotting these items in given vehicles and then breaking into the vehicles to recover the property.
Anyone with additional information is asked to contact the Wicomico Bureau of Investigation at 410-548-4898 or Crime Solvers at 410-548-1776

They got him about 5:30 at Walston Switch Sunoco thanks to a citizens tip. Go Barney!
Never knew a rouge and vagabond to own a vehicle.
What is interesting is that I own a home in Wicomico county and am out of the area for the winter. My neighbor noticed vehicle tracks in the snow leading to one of my out buildings and investigated. The neighbor found that someone had broken into my out building and called the sheriff's dept. The neighbor was told that because they were not the homeowner, the sheriff's dept. would not respond or investigate. Seems odd to me that we have crime watch signs in the area and a citizen calls in a burglary and the police won't respond because they don't own the property.
I fail to understand in this day and age why you would leave your electronics or a credit card sitting in you vehicle.
11:23.....serving and protecting. Too busy running radar units and seat belt "campaigns". THAT'S where the money is, but there ain't no money in investigating real crime. Crime Watch really means "watch the crime so we can file a report, which will then be used to justify MORE police, who can then do MORE seat belt campaigns, "agressive driving" campaigns, and radar set-ups. Keep reporting crimes they don't give a crap about. Make sure you DRIVE carefully, though. Its your money, I mean, uh....SAFETY- yeah thats it --safety! they are concerned about.
Just confused about who in their right mind would leave credit cards and/or a purse in their vehicle. Are people nuts?
Really 7:54? You do realize he's been arrested and the public notification worked like it was supposed to because we aren't everywhere?
Cpl. Chris Taylor had this case solved, then WBI snatched it from him. The real credit goes to him. Good job Chris
