The first burglary happened at the Freestate Gas Station located on the 20600 block of Frederick Road at 4:16 a.m. Officers responded to a commercial alarm at the location. Police say the suspects attempted to break into the ATM but were unsuccessful.
The second happened at the Sunoco Gas Station located on the 19200 block of Frederick Road. Officers responded to a commercial alarm at the location. In this incident, the suspects were successful in stealing the ATM from the business.
Police released a video of the two suspects.
