On October 30, 2026, at approximately 10:40 a.m., Western District officers responded to an attempted robbery at the McDonald’s in the 1100 block of Crain Highway South in Gambrills.

An armored vehicle driver was returning to his vehicle with cash from the business when a male subject approached from behind and attempted to grab the bag. A physical struggle ensued, and a second suspect exited an arriving vehicle to assist in the robbery. The victim successfully fought off both assailants, who then fled the scene in the vehicle.

Shortly after, a Southern District officer spotted the suspect vehicle and conducted a traffic stop in the 1000 block of Central Avenue. Officers took both suspects into custody without incident.
