Police Make Arrest in Citizen Robbery on Baltimore Avenue


Prince George’s County, Maryland…The Prince George’s County Police Department’s District I Investigative section has made an arrest in connection to a citizen robbery that occurred in College Park, Maryland.

On August 8, 2010 at approximately 12:19 a.m., patrol officers responded to the 7200 block of Baltimore Avenue for the report of a robbery.  When patrol officers arrived, they learned that three suspects had approached the victims, two of the suspects displayed handguns and demanded their money.  The victims complied with the suspects’ demands and gave them money and property.  After taking the items, the suspects fled the area on foot.

After pictures were displayed during a Channel 5 Fox News broadcast, Detectives were able to develop 21 year-old Andrew Hillocks as a suspect.  A warrant was obtained and Hillocks turned himself in for questioning by Detectives. Hillocks has been remanded to the custody of the Department of Corrections.

Anyone with additional information about this case is asked to call the Prince George’s County Police Department’s District I Investigative Section at (301) 699-2601.
