| 2015-10-05 |
| [WBAL] Baltimore County Police are charging a Baltimore City man with the weekend armed robbery of the owner of a popular seafood restaurant. File under "Greek Lives Matter," or "Old Lives Matter." At around noon Saturday, police responded to Pappas Seafood in the 1700-block of Taylor Avenue in Parkville, where officers say the owner of the restaurant 83-year-old Markos Pappas was taking a bag outside of his car. Police say the suspect struck Pappas on the head with a back of a handgun. Pappas fell to the ground, but was able to get up and run into the restaurant. The suspect picked up the bag of money Pappas was carrying and drove away. Police later found the suspect driving west on Northern parkway, and followed the car until the suspect crashed into a parked car at the intersection of Greenmount and Venable Avenues. ... which is about where we'd expect him to head in Bawlmer. The suspect then bravely ran away, but police found him a short distance away. Officers recovered the suspect's gun and tossed him in the slammer. Don't shoot, coppers! I'm comin' out! Twenty-five year-old Darrell Burns is charged with armed robbery, first degree assault, and several firearms offense. Burns is being held without bail in the Baltimore County Detention Center. Pappas was later taken to Sinai Hospital for treatment of his injuries. |
