In the last couple of weeks Georgetown has been hit with a rash of smash-and-grab commercial burglaries. At least five stores have been hit over that time. According to GM’s sources the list includes, among others, Wisemillers, Kitchen No. 1, and Sweet Green.
The M.O. for each burglary has been for the robbers to smash a hole through the glass door, squeeze through the hole, grab the cash register and jump into a waiting car. According to GM’s sources, the robbers generally wait until after closing. This is a little odd since most cash registers are emptied out at the end of the night. Thus the robbers are only getting some rolls of coins and some spare cash left for the morning. GM’s sources speculates that this fact indicates that the robbers are probably young and inexperienced.
In addition to the stores mentioned above, there was a burglary on 3200 block of Prospect St., the 3500 block of O St. and the 2700 block of P St., but GM wasn’t able to confirm what specific stores were hit.

Perhaps the same clowns that S&G’d Cleveland Park businesses last month.
