Saturday night breakins along North Charles Street

Last Sunday when going for our morning walk we noted that the offices located at 2524 North Charles Street were broken into and reported same to 911 where the Police reported shortly thereafter.  After staying with the Police Department while they went inside the building and giving them the information that we noted, we left.  Shortly thereafter and continuing currently we noted that the plate glass window was replaced with plywood.

This morning while returning from Safeway we noted that 2517 North Charles Street was broken into next to the Baltimore Times.  In this case we noted that the steel door was apparently pulled out and the glass on the front door was smashed.  We again reported the incident to the Police Department but as we were home we did not return to the site.

On the corner of 26th Street, east side of North Charles Street the little building now occupied by a single practioner was hit by a tremendous amount of grafitti.  This was after Parks and Recreations Department had their crew in and cleaned up the area to make it presentable for the residents of Charles Village.  For some reason this area appears to be signaled out for crime and needs the CVCBD to employ the Off-duty police who might have just prevented these crimes.  As you know there has been considerable publicity in Midtown over the recent shootings in that area and now with the additional policing there, criminals are targeting our community.
