Prince George's County deputies are asking the public for help locating Clifton Pittman, who they say is wanted in connection with a theft valued between $1,500 and just under $25,000. The request went out Wednesday as part of the sheriff's office's recurring Wanted Wednesday feature on social media.
The Prince George's County, Office of the Sheriff shared the appeal in a Facebook post titled Wanted Wednesday, according to the post itself. The office is requesting information about Pittman's whereabouts, and the post lists the alleged theft amount as falling in that $1,500-to-$25,000 range, though the post does not spell out whether that figure is an exact total or a charging bracket.
How to Submit a Tip
Anyone with information is encouraged to contact Crime Solvers at 1-866-411-TIPS (8477), per the same Facebook post. The sheriff's office also listed its own anonymous contact line, 301-780-8500, along with an anonymous tip email at [email protected], for residents who may know Pittman's location but prefer not to go through the Crime Solvers hotline.
What Maryland Law Says About the Alleged Offense
Theft valued at $1,500 but less than $25,000 is classified as a felony under Maryland law, according to Maryland Criminal Law § 7-104. The statute sets a maximum penalty of five years imprisonment, a fine of up to $10,000, or both for offenses that fall within that value range.
Beyond the theft-value range and the request for tips, no further details about the case — including when or where the alleged theft occurred — were included in the sheriff's office's post. The underlying Facebook content was not accessible for additional review, so Pittman's description, any case number, and the status of an arrest warrant remain unconfirmed.
