Anne Arundel Man Arrested in Florida

Joseph Leo Baumgarten of Pasadena was with Dianna Lynn Marketti, and both had outstanding warrants in Maryland.

The couple wanted in connection with a string of daytime door kick-in burglaries throughout Howard County were recently arrested in Bay County, FL.

Joseph Leo Baumgarten and Dianna Lynn Marketti have been wanted by the Howard County Sheriff’s Office since they skipped a bail hearing on Nov. 15. Baumgarten's address is listed as being in the 8400 block of Kenton Road in Pasadena, according to online court records. Marketti has addresses listed online in both Glen Burnie and Dundalk.

Marketti was arrested on an outstanding warrant after police responded to a verbal altercation between her and Baumgarten on Christmas, according to police in Springfield, FL. Baumgarten fled the scene that day, said Springfield police, but he was later picked up on an outstanding warrant on Jan. 3 and charged with resisting an officer and providing a false name.
