3500 block of Rhode Island Avenue: At about 9:45 am officers responded for the report of a residential burglary in progress. The reporting person observed two individuals entering a vacant dwelling through a window. When the officers arrived they observed the open window and set up a perimeter to try and prevent the escape of anyone who might be inside. A short time later the officers saw two individuals (one male juvenile and one female juvenile) exit the dwelling through the rear porch door. The officers detained both juveniles without incident. The property owner/agent responded and told the officers that he did not know the two juveniles and neither of them had permission to be on the property or in the house. He also told the officers that he did not want to press charges on either of them because he did not want to have to go to court and did not want to ruin anybody’s future with criminal records. The juvenile female was released to her parent on the scene and male subject was advised and sent on his way.

Sunday September 14:
4000 block of 34th Street (Oscar’s Flower Shop): At about 8 pm officers responded for the report of a commercial strong armed robbery. The officers met with an employee of the business who told them that a black male wearing a ski mask and hoodie sweat shirt entered the shop while she was placing the day’s earnings in a bank bag for deposit. The suspect grabbed the employee’s wrist and demanded the money. The suspect then snatched the money from the employee and fled the store on foot in an unknown direction. A check of the area for the suspect proved negative. Additional investigation and questioning of the employee revealed that the suspect had very distinctive and identifiable eyes. An individual with a similar description and known to have priors with police for area robberies was identified as a possible suspect. A set of photos were shown to the employee and she identified a possible suspect. Based on the information obtained and the employee’s identification, PGPD detectives are conducting a follow-up investigation that should lead to the arrest of the suspect.
