Salon 23 Hit in Masked Burglar's Spree: Harford Sheriff

After a burglar allegedly struck Salon 23 in Fallston and two other Harford County businesses in the same night, authorities are asking for help identifying the suspect. The Harford County Sheriff's Office is offering a reward for information.

• Salon 23 in the 2300 block of Belair Road, Fallston
• Infinity Salon in the 200 block of Gateway Drive, Bel Air
• Mountain Branch Golf Course in the 1800 block of Mountain Road, Joppa

The suspect was described as a white man of medium to heavy build, wearing shorts, a polo shirt and mask at the time of the burglaries.

As Golf News Net reported on the botched burglary at Mountain Branch Golf Course, authorities are seeking a "moron" who busted open a ball machine in search of money, only to find that it contained balls. "At least [he] was smart enough to wear a mask," the golf news site reported.

The burglary at Infinity Salon, behind the Harford Mall at 200 Gateway Drive in Bel Air, happened around 3:11 a.m. on Sept. 3, which was captured on surveillance, and so was the Mountain Branch Golf Course incident at 4:52 a.m. on Sept. 3.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Harford County Sheriff's Office Detective Lawrence DeFazio at 443-409-3333.

There is a reward of up to $2,000 for information. To be eligible, use one of the following methods: send a tip online through Metro Crime Stoppers; text the tip to Metro Crime Stoppers at 274637 with “MCS” plus the message; or call Harford Crime Solvers at 1-888-540-8477.
