The following report is a brief summary of incident #24010460:

On February 24, 2024, I, Officer Dylan Lambert, was working my assigned shift in marked unit East-1. At approximately 2:06 PM, I was dispatched to the area of TJ Max located at 105 Middlesex Avenue, Somerville, MA in regards to a suspicious person, who may be attempting to break into vehicles. The suspect was pulling on several door handles and was described as a white male with a black hat and blue backpack. Sergeant Messaoudi, in marked unit S8 and Officer Pavao, in marked unit East-3 responded to assist.

Officer Pavao and Sergeant Messaoudi arrived on scene shortly before me. Officer Pavao interviewed the witness, XXXX. Sergeant Messaoudi attempted to locate the suspect and requested a description of suspect over the radio. Officer Pavao provided the description and Sergeant Messaoudi stopped the suspect, Mr. Sean Driscoll in front of TJ Max. Sergeant Messaoudi told me that prior to my arrival, he attempted to make contact with Mr. Driscoll, who was walking at a fast pace toward TJ Max. Sergeant Messaoudi gave Mr. Driscoll commands to stop and place his hands on the cruiser. Mr. Driscoll was slow to respond to Sergeant Messaoudi and started to look around. Sergeant Messaoudi noticed loose change and sunglasses sticking out of Mr. Driscoll's pocket. Loose change is typically taken during a motor vehicle B&E.
