BREAKIKNG NEWS: Public’s Help Sought In Wal-Mart Stalking Case Shawn J. Soper, News Editor BERLIN -- Local law enforcement officials on Thursday afternoon continue to search for the suspect who entered the ladies’ room at the Wal-Mart on Route 50 early Thursday morning and used a cell phone to attempt to take pictures or video of a victim using the facilities. Around 9:30 a.m. on Thursday, the Maryland State Police (MSP) received a call from Wal-Mart security advising a white male had entered the ladies’ room and used a cell phone to take photographs or video of a victim who was using the restroom. While the victim was using the restroom, she observed a cell phone suddenly appear under the stall door and immediately confronted the suspect. The suspect, described as a white male, roughly 35-40 years old and about 275-300 pounds, exited the restrooms and the Wal-Mart store and began running toward the Home Depot store adjacent to the Wal-Mart. The victim and Wal-Mart employees continued to follow the suspect until they lost sight of him. MSP troopers and allied law enforcement agencies responded to the Home Depot to search for the suspect, but he was not located. Video surveillance and still images obtained by Wal-Mart depict the suspect as a white male wearing a dark brown, zippered, hooded sweatshirt, black or dark blue jogging pants, a black knit cap and Reebok tennis shoes with bright orange outsoles. The suspect also had a gray goatee or facial hair. The suspect is wanted for charges of stalking, harassment and unlawful surveillance. Anyone with information about the suspect or the incident is urged to contact the MSP Berlin barrack at 410-641-3101.
