From the Bel Air Police Department:
On Monday, December 4th, 2017, the Bel Air Police Department completed an investigation into a commercial burglary that occurred at Vape Runners (201A Gateway Dr., Bel Air, MD, 21014). Two of the male juvenile suspects were 17 yoa, from Street and Jarrettsville and one of the male suspects was 16 yoa, from Bel Air.
The suspects were arrested and charged with 2nd degree burglary, conspiracy to commit burglary, theft less than $10,000, and malicious destruction of property. After being charged, the juveniles were released to the custody of their parents/guardians
The Bel Air Police Department (and Detective Alex Maro) would like to thank the members of the public who assisted our police officers and detectives during this investigation. This case could not have been solved without the numerous tips, private surveillance video and other information that was provided by our community.

Just Sayin says
The article forgot to mention that these kids once drove through Edgewood and Aberdeen! Something bad that happens in HarCo has to somehow have its roots on Rte 40!!!
word on street says
The article said they were from Street, Jarretville and Belair, not the Rt 40 corridor. Correct me if I am,, but those towns are not on Rt 40.S
Cdev says
I think the car moment was sarcasm. An attempt to link crime problems in bel air to route 40 is usually what happens.
Insider says
This is the kind of behavior that is being bred and condoned inside the school system because there are no consequences at all for anything anymore so that statistics lie about how great things are. There are many criminals that are attending school and causing massive chaos in the schools. These kids are out of control and allowed to continue with that behavior, parents wake up and demand better. Excuses and cover ups are a way of life for our school system now. Why do you think the drug problem is the way it is, because they are aloud to come to school stoned and nobody has the balls to stand up to them, and the system does not want the bad PR or statistics associated with it, so they cover it up.

Don’t blame it on the school system, discipline and respect starts at home.
SoulCrusher says
“Don’t blame it on the school system, discipline and respect starts at home” – Yet they have taken the power to discipline out of the parents hands and made it practically illegal to discipline a child harshly. Recently, a good friend of mine had his child come home from school and he was doing something his father told him over and over not to do. My friend told him, “Boy, get out of that street and get over here before I bust you a$$”. His son was riding his electric bicycle like contraption on the road next to their house without supervision. His son told him “You can’t do anything to me” and “I’ll call the cops”. When he asked his son where he was told that he replied that his teacher told him that. WTF. The schools want to take over the act of child rearing then the teachers want to complain about the kids being little heathens when they created the little heathen. In my opinion, that teacher should be fired. So, do you really think that exchange prevented little David from getting his butt busted? No, not at all. He got his butt busted , his electric dirt bike taken away and his father told him that if he calls the cops he needs to find a new place to live because he’s no longer welcome in his father’s house. The kid is a 12 year old boy. He deserved to get his butt busted…..and it’s been over a month and he still has not rode his electric bike. I believe big David did the right thing. What do you think?
word on street says
My kids try that shut on me, don’t work. If he let his kid talk to him like that he is a week parent.
SoulCrusher says
He didn’t. The boy got his a$$ whooped as he should’ve. I believe he is a good parent for that.
Jess says
Well Soul Crusher, I think we found a topic we agree on! It sounds like Big David is being the kind of parent I aspire to be! I HATE when people tell me I’m “lucky” to have such a good kid. As though luck has anything to do with it!
Reality Check says
Sadly, you are correct. Schools and teachers are discouraged from discipling children, even for the most extreme behaviors. The newest push is to “build relationships” so the kids will behave. Kids speak to the teachers the same way they speak to their parents. Kids are ruling the house. Whatever they say is gospel to their parents, and even admin. Their word is more important than teachers, even when they repeatedly lie.
It’s no wonder some schools can’t keep teachers.

Thank you to Republican Sheriff Gohler.
Tina Loft says
Be honest, let me know your thoughts.
I suck at trolling the dagger don’t I.
I second that says
Big time!!!!
clarification says
It’s Gahler not “Gohler” troll.
Tina Loft says
Meanie!
Simply saying says
Gahler didn’t have anything to do with this arrest, although I’m sure he would love to take credit for it. He loves his name listed for everything. It’s really his deputy’s hat make him look good, they deserve the credit!
The Truth Hurts says
It was Bel Air PD that solved this case. They deserve the credit, not attention seeking Jeff Gahler.
Jeff's Cool-Aid says
Jeffrey Gahler is my hero. He makes others look dumb in an effort to better himself. Hell I would do the same if I was him. Good job Jeffry poo I hope you sleep well at night knowing you are willing to screw over your fellow brothers. Wait who am I kidding you could care less
Hurt Feelings says
Talk about looking dumb did you see how the chief insulted everyone in the county, claiming himself, his daddy Jesse and his grandmother Susan are the only people doing anything for heroin addicts? Moore needs no help looking dumb…he only needs to speak.
SoulCrusher says
” It’s really his deputy’s hat make him look good” – I think the deputy’s hat looks terrible. I mean why not wear a baseball cap? Those hats are just archaic…..
Lone Ranger says
For sure it wasn’t Gahler, had to have been Chief Bane and his sidekick that stopped these desperados.
On the Mark says
I agree, but if the students are not getting the discipline or being taught respect at home maybe the schools could step up and help these kids learn these skills before they become a problem for the legal system. I’ve lived in Harford County for almost 60 years and watch the decline of discipline and respect in our schools over the years and an increase in crime. Schools are supposed to prepare students for their future, disciplined and being respectful should be part of that. From what I hear from teachers and students this is no longer happening.
