Kennise Chantelle Burrell, 30, of the 4800 block of Norwood Road, was arrested in late April when Baltimore County police found her hiding behind a bus shelter after allegedly shoplifting at a CVS store located at 1000 Taylor Ave. Police said Burrell began her robbery spree at that CVS store on March 25, ironically.
Described as a “teardrop tattoed robber,” police said that Burrell’s arrest cleared this shoplifting case and four additional armed robbery cases. Baltimore City police also cleared a number of armed robbery cases with Burrell’s arrest.
Police said that Burrell admitted she committed the crimes because of a drug addiction. She allegedly would pay “unknown individuals to drive her to the locations where she would commit the armed robberies by showing what appeared to be a handgun on her or in a bag she carried, demanding cash, then have the individual drop her off at another location,” police said.
