BOWIE, Md. (DC News Now) -- Bowie police are investigating a burglary spree where suspects targeted several stores including wine and liquor stores in one day. Joe Hillman lives in Bowie and is concerned about the uptick in crime in his community. “Most of this stuff you see is happening in D.C. but it’s no surprise that it is happening out in the suburbs," Hillman said. "Doesn't surprise me at all. Everybody keeps saying this doesn't happen in my neighborhood, but it happens in every neighborhood."

BPD said the burglars allegedly broke into several businesses on Dec. 4. The first incident happened around 7 a.m. at Crescent Wine on Annapolis Road. Then, 30 minutes later, suspects hit Bowie Liquor on Laurel Bowie Road.
