An alert was issued by the St. Mary’s County Sheriff’s Office on Thursday, June 9 as they attempt to identify and locate two people who were pictured by home surveillance video during the vandalism incident.
County spokesperson Jason Babcock said that at approximately 12:30 a.m. on Sunday, May 29, two suspects walked up to the porch of a home at the 22900 block of Hollywood Road in Leonardtown.
As the suspects knocked forcefully at the home's door, the storm door's glass broke and the two suspects ran away, he said.
In a video shared by investigators, the two can be seen on a doorbell camera walking up to the porch, banging on the door once, and promptly sprinting away from the area when it broke.
The incident remains under investigation.
