Washington, DC – A series of brazen burglaries across the city has prompted the Metropolitan Police Department to seek public assistance in identifying the suspects involved.

In the early hours of Tuesday, multiple establishments fell victim to a pattern of overnight burglaries. In each case, three suspects forcibly entered by breaking a front door or window stole cash and fled in a blue sedan.

The incidents occurred at various locations, including:

  • 2200 Block of Town Center Drive, Southeast
  • 3800 Block of Pennsylvania Avenue, Southeast
  • 2600 Block of P Street, Northwest
  • 1200 Block of Half Street, Southeast
  • 200 Block of M Street, Southeast

Surveillance cameras captured images of the suspects and their vehicle, which may aid in the investigation.

Anyone who can identify the suspects or the vehicle, or who has knowledge of these incidents, is urged to refrain from taking action but to contact police at (202) 727-9099 or text tips to the Department’s TEXT TIP LINE at 50411. The Metropolitan Police Department is offering a reward of up to $1,000 for information leading to the arrest and indictment of those responsible for these crimes in the District of Columbia.
