ARREST OF ROBBERY SUSPECT: On October 30, 2009 at 4:23 a.m., a maintenance employee of Neibauer Dental was assaulted with a hammer and robbed by two men outside of the dental office on Steeple Chase Drive in Prince Frederick. Det. N. DeFelice of the C.I.T. assumed the investigation. Information and evidence was collected on the scene with the assistance of Calvert County Sheriff's Office Crime Scene Technician G. Crump. A fingerprint was recovered at the scene and transported to the Charles County Crime Laboratory for further processing. The discovered fingerprint was subsequently identified as that of David Allen Roberts, 21 of Lusby. Following intensive investigation, Det. DeFelice requested a warrant for the arrest of Roberts. Roberts was arrested on that warrant on October 12 by members of the Calvert County Sheriff's Office and charged with armed robbery, first degree assault, theft under $1,000, reckless endangerment and rogue and vagabond. A second suspect, who is currently living out of state and wanted on unrelated charges, was implicated by Roberts but contact with him has not yet been made. The investigation is continuing. Anyone with information is asked to contact Det. DeFelice at 410-535-1600, extension 2669.

SEX OFFENDER ARREST: In September, Sgt. T. Fridman began an investigation of Tony Andrew Messineo, 24 of Huntingtown. Messineo is a registered sex offender out of St. Mary's County who had moved to Calvert County and registered with the Calvert County Sheriff's Office, as he is required by law to do. Within a few days Messineo had outstanding arrest warrants for Violation of Probation and theft. He fled Calvert County and was in an unknown state. An arrest warrant was obtained on September 19 for failure to notify of an address change. Sgt. Fridman made contact with residents at Messineo's listed home address and discovered that Messineo could possibly be in North Carolina, but what particular town or city was unknown. Sgt. Fridman made contact with the U.S. Marshals Service and passed on the information to several law enforcement agencies in North Carolina. On Monday, October 9, Sgt. Fridman was contacted by Det. John Lombard of the Rowan County Sheriff's Office in North Carolina. Det. Lombard stated that his agency had received a call from a local citizen who wanted to report damage to a rental property. The citizen named the suspect as Tony Messineo. Det. Lombard recalled that he had received information on Messineo and subsequently contacted Sgt. Fridman, providing the address given by the citizen. Sgt. Fridman contacted Agent Tom McDaniel, designated US Marshal for Calvert County, and he contacted the US Marshals Service in North Carolina. On October 10, Det. Lombard and several agents from the US Marshals Service located Tony Andrew Messineo at a home in Salisbury, North Carolina and he was arrested without incident. Messineo has been charged locally for failing to register in North Carolina and he will be charged federally for interstate sex offender violations. He is currently being housed at the Rowan County Detention Center in North Carolina.
