Montgomery County Police has released images of a person wanted in connection to a burglary that occurred last month in Chevy Chase.
Per the news release: Detectives from the Montgomery County Department of Police – 2nd District Investigative Section are investigating a burglary that occurred on Tuesday, April 16, 2024, at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the 5400 block of Western Avenue in Chevy Chase. Detectives have released a photo of the male suspect and are asking for the public’s assistance in identifying him.
At approximately 11 a.m., 2nd District officers responded to the location for the report of a burglary. The investigation by detectives has revealed that an unknown suspect forced entry into the church and cut sections of copper piping.

The suspect is described as a Hispanic male, in his fifties, with a trimmed beard, medium build, wearing a white construction safety helmet, a reflective yellow/orange vest, a purple t-shirt, gray gloves and carrying a black backpack.
