Police arrest teens who broke into vehicles, dragged officer during pursuit

BALTIMORE, MD—Police have arrested two juveniles who broke into several vehicles and dragged a police officer during the subsequent pursuit.

At just before 12:30 a.m. on Tuesday, May 9, 2023, officers responded to the 6600-block of Loch Hill Road (21239) in reference to a destruction of property call. When officers arrived on the scene, they identified several nearby vehicles that had been broken into.

Shortly thereafter, officers located a dark sedan with its engine running at Raven Hill Road and Loch Hill Road. As officers were working to determine whether the vehicle was stolen, two juveniles jumped into the sedan and drove off. Although officers attempted to stop the suspect vehicle several times, the driver refused. At one point, the suspect vehicle dragged an officer who was attempting to stop the juveniles. The suspect vehicle also struck two marked police cars while attempting to flee.

Officers apprehended the 15-year-old and 14-year-old juveniles at the intersection of Northwood Drive and Pentwood Road.

Officers later identified at least five vehicles that the two suspects had broken into.
