On March 22 at 3:39 a.m., officers responded to the 2200 block of Crain Highway in Waldorf for the report of a burglary in progress. The initial information indicated a vehicle rammed through the back door of a pawn shop and at least three suspects entered the store. Officers arrived and observed two vehicles fleeing the scene. Officers lost sight of one vehicle and attempted to stop the driver of another vehicle – an Infiniti. The driver did not stop and continued fleeing to Livingston Road. The officer temporarily lost sight of the Infiniti but observed a telephone pole down and sparks near the intersection of Livingston Road and Route 210. The officer drove to the area and observed the driver of the Infiniti had crashed. EMS responded and the suspect was flown to a hospital with critical injuries. Further information revealed several firearms were stolen from the business. Anyone with information about this case is asked to call Detective Sauve at 301-609-5892.
