Police Investigating Two Burglaries Near Georgetown

Metropolitan and Georgetown University police are investigating two burglaries that happened near the school Friday night, according to WTOP.

The two off-campus incidents happened about 30 minutes apart.

According to WTOP, both incidents involved Georgetown students and were near the intersection of 36th and O streets in Northwest Washington.

A Georgetown University public safety officer would not answer questions about the incidents during a Sunday morning phone call.

The first incident happened around 10 p.m. in the 1400 block of 36th St. NW. A Georgetown student said a man jumped out of her closet when she was sitting in the living room of her home, according to WTOP. The man said he was looking for a party then ran out the back door of the home. About a half hour later, a second alleged victim said she came home and found a man in her bedroom, and he fled from the home in the 3600 block of O St. NW, according to WTOP.

NBC4 has video interviews of the students.

The alleged suspect in the first incident is described as a 6 feet tall black male, who may be in his early twenties, according to WTOP. The man allegedly had a medium build and was wearing a black North Face hooded jacket with black sunglasses. The alleged suspect in the second incident reportedly had a similar height, build and jacket description as the first alleged suspect, according to WTOP. The second alleged suspect was also wearing white gloves and his face was covered with a mask, according to WTOP.

Anybody with any information about these burglaries are asked to call the Georgetown Department of Public Safety at (202) 687-4343.
