Witnesses at the scene have provided information pertaining to the following descriptions of two possible suspects:
- Both white males

- Both approximately 5’6″ to 5’10” tall
- One was wearing a black and white striped shirt with shorts.
- The other was in a white tee shirt with a design, words, or logo on the front.

A review of security video revealed the above subjects matching the description provided by the witness. While the facial features are not very clear, however, the clothing and the design on the backpack are somewhat distinctive.
At the present time, investigators are asking for the public’s assistance in this case. The investigation into the incident is ongoing and investigators are asking anyone who may be able to identify the persons in the attachedpictures and/or provide additional information about this incident to contact Anne Arundel County Fire Investigators at 410-222-TIPS (8477).
