By: -----
Laurel, MD - A Silver Spring man is in custody after a pursuit in Laurel on Thursday. The police department shared body-worn camera video of the chase that led officers through a supermarket.
Police say 34-year-old Alex Skinner Abramson robbed a woman in broad daylight, stole her keys and tried to carjack her in the early morning Thursday.
The man then took off running. Officers on the ground gave chase, and the police department's drone team tracked movements from above.
The man ran into a supermarket, and the police officers followed him through the store.
"He's in the Aldi! He's in the Aldi," one officer says on body camera video.
Abramson exited on the other side and a coordinated effort allowed police to arrest him.
Abramson was charged with attempted carjacking, theft, resisting arrest and other related charges.
