WALDORF, Md. – Detectives assigned to the Criminal Investigations Division have arrested a suspect in connection with a homicide that occurred in the parking lot of Home Depot on Jefferson Farm Place in Waldorf.
On July 2 at 12:40 a.m., officers responded to a burglary and theft in progress at the Lowe’s Home Improvement store in the 2500 block of Crain Highway. The suspect, Bryce Caleb Timothy Brown, 20, of Waldorf, broke into the business, stole a forklift and rammed it through the rear gates. Brown left Lowe’s on the forklift, entering the parking lot of Home Depot on Jefferson Farm Place where, for unknown reasons, he rammed a vehicle that was parked in the parking lot. A woman, who was asleep in the car, got out when the forklift struck her car and began running away. Brown followed her, struck her with the forklift and ran over her, and then stole the victim’s car and fled.
Officers who were investigating the initial burglary at Lowe’s canvassed the area and observed the forklift in the Home Depot parking lot. They subsequently discovered the victim underneath of the forklift; she was pronounced deceased on the scene. The victim was later identified as Gloristine Pinkney, 73, of Waldorf. Brown and Pinkney are not known to each other.
After pursuing leads, detectives were able to positively identify Brown as the suspect. He was arrested during the evening hours of July 2. The victim’s vehicle was recovered near the suspect’s house. Brown was charged with first-degree murder, second-degree murder, assault, theft and other related charges. He is currently being held at the Charles County Detention Center without bond. Detective Weaver is investigating.

How in God’s name, can a 20 year olds life go so bad, he would run over a 73 year old stranger ,in the middle of the night, with a stolen fork lift. This has to be one for the record! Get and keep him off the street forever !
Indeed. No arrest record… and he jumps to THIS severity of crime?
May he rot in hell. Lock and load. F46.
What does Biden have to do with this?
“Without bond”
Good. Throw away the key.
One day we will all have to answer for our actions. Prayers go out to the victim and her loved ones.
Bullet between the eyes is what he needs
“A woman, who was asleep in the car, got out when the forklift struck her car and began running away.”
Her first mistake. She should have started her car, got away from him and called the cops.
This wasn’t her fault, you dolt.
Nobody said it was, cupcake. I’m just saying that, with only two options, she took the wrong one.
The story states he rammed the forks of the fork lift into the car. Maybe she couldn’t start it up because the car was damaged; so she had no alternative but to run for it. That poor woman. Why was she asleep in a store parking lot in the middle of the night at 73 years old? That’s what I want to know.
My condolences to her family.
I wonder was she a driver? Sometimes I would park in a parking lot like this to get some sleep. I’ve since stopped during this.
Forklift violence
