Two Baltimore County men busted burglarizing vehicles in Harford County

On April 6, the Harford County Sheriff’s Office reported arresting two men responsible for burglarizing area vehicles over the last several days.  The thieves both hail from Baltimore County; although their activities do not appear to have been coordinated.

On Sunday, April 5 at 5:05 a.m., a deputy on patrol in the 3500 block of Woodsdale Road in Abingdon, Maryland, witnessed a man looking in the back of a vehicle. Upon noticing the deputy, the man fled the scene.

The deputy chased his suspect and eventually took him into custody, identifying him as Christopher Michael Suprik, 37, of Dundalk. Deputies determined the man stole several items from the vehicle in the 3500 block of Woodsdale Road. All items were recovered and Suprik was arrested and charged accordingly.

In a separate case, on Monday, April 6 at 2:37 a.m., deputies responded to the 500 block of Macintosh Circle in Joppa for the report of a man found stealing items out of vehicles. Upon arrival it was determined a victim in the block went out to start his car when he found a man, identified as Steven Krivoshaev, 26, of Middle River, sitting in the front passenger seat of his car.

Krivoshaev attempted to run, and after a short altercation, the victim was able to restrain him and 911 was called. Through investigation, it was discovered that Krivoshaev had gone through 13 vehicles in the 500 block of Macintosh Circle. Krivoshaev was arrested and charged with 2nd degree assault, theft and rogue and vagabond.

Despite Maryland Governor Larry Hogan’s stay-at-home orders, officials are stressing that criminals don’t stay home. In fact, at times like these, they may be more willing to take advantage of the situation and attempt to victimize more members of the community.

The Harford County Sheriff’s Office has stated that their deputies will continue to respond to calls for service and perform their proactive patrols to safeguard the community and protect Harford County citizens.

Police always recommend keeping your vehicles locked –  and to not leave valuables in your vehicle or in plain sight.
