FREDERICK, Md. – On Nov. 25, at approximately 10:20 a.m., Frederick County Sheriff’s Office (FCSO) deputies responded to the Fulton Bank located at 5211 Presidents Court, in Frederick, for a male suspect recognized as committing fraudulent transactions throughout the state of Maryland.
Deputies attempted to detain the male in handcuffs and while they did so a female suspect that was with him fled. One deputy chased after the female suspect at which time the male suspect assaulted the remaining deputy and then fled on foot. Deputies quickly apprehended the female without incident.
