Damage to Property @ Clubhouse

On 09/12/2010 Officer Owen Phillips responded to a reported damage to property at 918 Birkdale Dr, Glen Laurel Golf Club. Upon arrival he spoke with Steve Ostroff, manager, who advised someone had damaged one of the rear entry doors.

Officer Phillips walked to the rear of the business and found a large red landscaping paver laying on the interior floor approximately 6 feet from the door. The door has a large pane of glass ( approx 5` x 2`) in the center. The glass had been broken by the paver being thrown through it. The glass was double pane indicating a great amount of forced was used when thepaver was thrown.

Officer Phillips found that the motion detector in the room is at such an angle that it could not detect any movement from the damaged door. If the suspect had entered the business more than 7 feet, the motion detector would have picked up his movement.Mr. Ostroff stated he could not find anything missing from the business.

Officer Phillips checked the immediate area and did not locate anything that looked out of place inside of the business.Officer Phillips examined the paver and found it to be mostly wet indicating it had recently been thrown through glass due to it having rained recently.

There are no cameras located on the premises that would have captured the incident.Officer Phillips identified landscaping located 15 feet away from the door that was missing the exact type of paver.

Officer Phillips identified several easier ways to access the business for purposes of taking merchandise.This appears to be a damage to property at this time with no offender/suspect information.
