Suspects Still Sought in Middle River Armed Robbery

Two suspects wanted for an armed robbery at a Middle River liquor store Saturday morning are still at-large, a Baltimore County police spokeswoman said.

said the suspects entered Oak Grove Liquors, located on the 300 block of Holly Drive, at 10:19 a.m. and robbed a male and female employee at gunpoint. The male employee then got into a struggle with one of the suspects and was struck in the head with the gun.

The suspects then grabbed an undisclosed amount of cash from a drawer and ran off, Batton said.

At that point, Batton said, the male employee retrieved another gun from the store, chased the suspects and fired a “warning shot.” The source of the employee's gun is still under investigation, Batton said.

The male employee was treated for a head injury at the scene and refused to be taken to the hospital, Batton said.

The suspects are described as two black males, each approximately 5-foot-11 and 165 pounds with medium builds. Also, one of the suspects had a spider tattoo, Batton said.

Employees at Oak Grove Liquors declined to comment on the incident.
