On December 3, 2024, at approximately 3:46 a.m., the Charles County Sheriff’s Office was notified of an armed robbery which occurred at a business in King George County, Virginia. The King George County Sheriff’s Office attempted to stop the suspect’s vehicle, which was later reported stolen, and a pursuit ensued crossing the Nice-Middleton Memorial Bridge into Maryland, where Maryland Transportation Authority Police joined to assist. The suspect continued to flee north on Crain Hwy. towards La Plata, where CCSO and La Plata Police Department officers successfully deployed stop sticks which the suspect struck. Shortly thereafter, the suspect struck a citizen’s vehicle traveling on Crain Highway near Charles Street, disabling both vehicles. Officers quickly secured the scene and began to provide aid to the vehicle occupants. One suspect was transported to an area hospital with non-life-threatening injuries; the second suspect was transported to an area hospital in critical condition. The citizen whose vehicle was struck was also transported to an area hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. Maryland State Police are continuing to investigate the crash, and in accordance with Maryland law, the Maryland Attorney General’s Office Independent Investigations Division was notified and assumed the investigation.

you know.......... Charles County political operatives could try the new fad of making the County a Sanctuary City and fight other entities from outside grabbing "their peoples".... You know, like Frederick City fighting TRUMP and ICE from grabbing cat eating Haitians.....


So, when these fine refugees are released from: 1) the Hospital, and 2) get Personal Recognizance from a District Court, Charles County can shred any and all extradition papers and harbor the alleged defendants at the Charles Hotel in Hughesville with LGBiTQ guards.
