Crime Solvers Seeks Third Burglary Suspect
Two men have been charged and a third man is wanted for his alleged involvement in a series of burglaries. Fairfax County Crime Solvers is asking for the public’s assistance in locating that man. Since December 2008, investigators received 12 burglary reports from residents in and around the Bucknell Manor neighborhood in the Beacon Hill area. Investigations into these burglaries led to several suspects.
On Friday, March 13, Reginald Carter, 49, of 6801 Derrell Court in Alexandria, was arrested and charged with burglary, grand larceny, possession of cocaine and driving on a revoked license. These charges stem from a burglary on Thursday, March 12 in the 6800 block of Kenyan Drive.
On Tuesday, March 17, Thomas Monroe, 40, of 2241 Sweetbriar Drive in Alexandria, was arrested and charged with three counts of burglary, two counts of larceny with the intent to sell and three counts of grand larceny. These charges stem from three burglaries on Tuesday, December 23, 2008; Wednesday, December 24, 2008; and Tuesday, March 17. Further charges are possible.
Warrants are outstanding on Michael Carter, 44, also of 6801 Derrell Court in Alexandria, for his alleged involvement. He is currently wanted on five counts of burglary, three counts of grand larceny and one count of larceny with intent to sell. These charges stem from the following burglaries:
- December 23, 2008 – 6700 block of Oak Drive
- December 25, 2008 – 2600 block of Beacon Hill Road
- February 23 – 2200 block of Roanoke Drive
- March 10 – 2600 block of Beacon Hill Road
- March 12 – 6800 block of Kenyon Drive
Michael Carter is black, 5 feet 11 inches tall and weighs about 170 pounds. He is known to frequent the Beacon Hill area and may be soliciting lawn and tree work at homes in the area.
Investigators have determined that in four of the reported burglaries, the suspects had previously done lawn and tree maintenance at the homes. Detectives would like to speak with anyone who may have been the victim of a burglary in that area and not yet reported the incident.
