Pair Steals Necklace and Flees in Kia Sportage in Rockville

The Rockville City Police Department (RCPD) is investigating an incident in which two individuals approached a woman in a parking lot on the 700 block of Hungerford Drive and stole her necklace. The incident occurred at approximately 4:19 p.m. on November 16, 2025, as the victim was getting into her vehicle.

The female was described as having fair skin and wearing a pink shirt. Rockville Police ask anyone with information about the incident to contact the department.
