Cambridge Police arrest man wanted in connection to multiple thefts

CAMBRIDGE, Md. – A wanted Cambridge man has been taken into custody.

Earlier this week, Cambridge Police asked for the community’s help in locating 44-year-old Eugene Dandy III, who had multiple warrants out of Dorchester and Talbot Counties. Through tips received by community members, officers found Dandy in the 400 block of Skinners Court on Wednesday. Police ordered Dandy to stop, but he reportedly began walking away, not complying with orders to stop. He was quickly taken into custody with the assistance of a Cambridge Police K9.

Dandy was taken to a nearby hospital for treatment of a dog bite before being taken to the Cambridge Police Department. He was subsequently held without bond after being served with three outstanding warrants:

• Talbot County District Court: Theft less than $100 and attempted theft $1500 to under $25,000, stemming from a shoplifting on August 21st at Dick’s Sporting Goods in Easton.
• Talbot County District Court: Theft $100 to under $1500 (two counts) and theft scheme $1500 to under $25,000, stemming from two shoplifting incidents at the Target in Easton on August 15th and September 7th.
• Dorchester County District Court: Fourth degree burglary theft (two counts), conspiracy fourth degree burglary theft, theft scheme $100 to under $1500, theft $100 to under $1500 (three counts), theft less than $100, and conspiracy theft $100 to under $1500. These charges all stem from shoplifting incidents at Hibbett Sports on August 17th, August 31st, and September 1st, as well as a shoplifting from E. S. Hubbert on September 3rd.
