OLNEY, MD – Detectives from the Montgomery County Department of Police are investigating two attempted break-ins at an Exxon gas station located in the 18000 block of Georgia Ave in Olney.

The first incident took place on Sunday, July 2, around 2:36 a.m., when one of two suspects threw a rock at the gas station’s front window in an attempt to gain entry. The attempt was unsuccessful, and no property was stolen.

The same pair returned to the Exxon gas station on Friday, July 7, around 1:49 a.m. This time, one suspect used an axe in an unsuccessful attempt to open the front door.

The suspects have been described as two white males, aged between 15 and 21, who were wearing all black clothing and had their faces covered with a t-shirt.

A reward of up to $10,000 is being offered for any information that leads to the arrest of the suspects. The public is asked to call Crime Solvers of Montgomery County with any relevant information.
