Two men were charged with burglary Sunday after officers responding to an alarm at a Jessup liquor store stopped their vehicle outside the store, Howard County police said.

The men -- Glenn Harris Newman, 38, of the 8300 block of Wades Way in Jessup and Edward Bradley Brown, 36, of the 14700 block of Fourth St. in Laurel -- were charged with burglary, carrying a handgun in a vehicle, theft and malicious destruction of property, police said.

Brown was being held at the Howard County Detention Center on $500,000 bond yesterday. Newman was bailed out of jail on a $50,000 bond Sunday, a District Court commissioner said.

About 2: 30 a.m. Sunday, officers responding to a burglar alarm arrived at U.S. 1 Liquors in the 8100 block of U.S. 1. When they got there, they saw two men in a green 1992 Pontiac Firebird driving away, police said.

Police stopped the car, searched it and arrested the two occupants after finding a 9 mm handgun, stolen liquor and cartons of cigarettes inside, police said.
