Deputies were dispatched to the location at approximately 8:13 p.m. in response to a report of suspicious individuals. Upon arrival, officers observed two individuals, clad in dark clothing, gloves, and face coverings, concealed near the front entrance of a residence. The suspects fled on foot into a wooded area behind the property as deputies approached. A subsequent search of the area by deputies, aided by a nearby resident who reported the individuals traversing their property and causing damage, led to the swift apprehension of both suspects. Additional support was provided by drone units and Trooper 3.
Both Gentry and Cooper, who were found to have no lawful reason to be on the property, are alleged to have fled from law enforcement. Cooper also reportedly attempted to provide a false identity to authorities. The Frederick County Sheriff’s Office stated that Gentry has been charged with burglary in the third and fourth degrees, possession of burglary tools, malicious destruction of property, failure to obey a lawful order, disturbing the peace, and obstructing and hindering. Cooper faces similar charges, along with additional counts of fraud for attempting to use a false identity to avoid prosecution and making false statements to an officer. Both men were taken to the Frederick County Adult Detention Center.
Residents of Frederick County can be assured that the Sheriff’s Office actively responds to suspicious activity, and in this instance, deputies were able to quickly apprehend individuals believed to be involved in criminal activity. The incident serves as a reminder that individuals who come to Frederick County with the intent to commit crimes are likely to be apprehended. The Sheriff’s Office encourages anyone with further information regarding this incident to contact them at 301-600-1046.
