When thugs from Lancaster PA go to the beach
To heck with surf and sun; they go for electronics and credit cards during a burglary to an occupied residence
OCEAN CITY, MD – (July 6, 2016) Ocean City Police report that they landed a gang of burglars from Pennsylvania in the hoosegow for allegedly breaking into a residence while the occupants were asleep and making off with thousands of dollars in property.
