Glen Burnie Car Theft, Gun Offense Prompts Arrest Of Millersville Teen: Police

GLEN BURNIE, MD — Police announced that they caught a Millersville teenager with a loaded gun last Wednesday after a Glen Burnie car theft. Officers said they arrested the 15-year-old boy, but they are still looking for another suspect.

Authorities did not release the name of the accused juvenile. This is customary for minors who are charged with most crimes.

Police said they heard about the car theft around 4:20 p.m. A witness told investigators that they saw two males enter a silver 2013 Hyundai Sonata and drive away from a home in the 400 block of Ingram Court.

A responding officer said they spotted the sedan occupied by two males at the 7-Eleven located at 1250 Crain Highway. The juvenile passenger exited the car.

Authorities said they found him with a loaded .38-caliber Taurus M85 revolver. Police took him into custody and charged him accordingly.

The driver fled in the Hyundai, officers said. Investigators later found the unoccupied car in Baltimore near 3rd Street and Annabel Avenue.

The Anne Arundel County Police Department is still looking for the driver. Detectives asked anybody with information to call (410) 222-6145. Tipsters can stay anonymous by dialing (410) 222-4700.
