Police Asking Business Owners to Review Surveillance Video Footage in Hoggle Case

The two young children have been missing for more than two weeks

September 23, 2014 9:58 a.m.

Montgomery County police are asking business owners in Montgomery County with exterior video cameras to check their footage for Catherine Hoggle’s two vehicles around the time her two young children disappeared.

There haven’t been any confirmed sightings of the two children, Jacob, 2, and Sarah, 3, since they were first reported missing Sept. 8, according to police. Both children were last seen with Hoggle, a Clarksburg resident, who has been diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia.

Police are now hoping that an exterior business video camera may have captured footage of one of the two vehicles Hoggle was known to drive; a silver SUV with the Maryland license plate number 3 A/X 8778, which she was driving on the afternoon of Sept. 7 and a silver minivan with the Maryland license plate number 48598 C/E that she may have been driving from 5 to 8:30 a.m. on Sept. 8.

Police said both vehicles are accounted for, but they are seeking any information about their whereabouts at the time the children disappeared.

Hoggle was taken into custody by police Sept. 12 while walking in Germantown. She has been charged with two counts of child neglect and is being held on $1 million bond. She has not told police what she knows about the location of the children and police are in the process of pursuing homicide charges against her.
