Annapolis Police: Glass Defeats Brick In Attempted Burglary
The window held together even though a brick cracked it, police said.
Annapolis police said a would-be burglar tossed a brick at a store window but fled when the window did not shatter.
A gift store shop in the 100 block of Main Street had its side door window smashed by a suspect overnight Monday. The glass cracked, but did not break apart, and the suspect did not gain entry into the business, according to a police report.
The window was double-pane with laminate in the middle, according to the report.
"The suspect went through the efforts of removing the brick and hiding it away from the scene, because it was recovered behind the building," according to the report.
No suspect description was available.
