Frederick, MD.-On 06/02/2016 at approximately 8:52pm, officers of the Frederick Police Department responded to the 100 Blk of West All Saints Street for a burglary and assault that just occurred. Upon arrival, officers were able to locate the victim outside of the address. Officers were then informed a B/M, later identified as Wilbert Pelzie Price, had forced his way inside with a handgun. Once in the residence, Price assaulted the victim and then left the scene. Fortunately the victim wasn’t hurt during the altercation and didn’t need medical attention.
Officers then canvassed the surrounding area and were able to locate Price in Mullinix Park. Price was taken into custody without incident. Officers were also able to recover the handgun which was found to be a BB gun. Price was transported to the Frederick County Adult Detention Center's Central Booking Unit for processing. Since this is an ongoing investigation, the name and address of the victim is not being leased. Price is awaiting an appearance before the district court commissioner at this time.
