The Metropolitan Police Department is on the lookout for a suspect involved in a Southeast shooting, as detectives have urged the community to come forward with any information that could lead to the apprehension and legal reckoning of the individual responsible for this violent crime. Following the events of Wednesday, September 4, when a walk-in shooting victim requested aid at a local medical center, they were swiftly thrust into the life-preserving embrace of hospital care.
The victim claims the violence befell them near a gas station in the 2500 block of Pennsylvania Avenue, with the assault occurring around the late afternoon hour of 4:47 p.m., as reported by the Metropolitan Police Department.
The victim is reported to be in a stable condition in the wake of the attack, which is under scrutiny as an "Assault with Intent to Kill," according to a statement obtained by the MPD. A reward of up to $10,000 stands as an incentive by the department, a sum promised for any information that delivers the suspect into custody and concludes with a conviction.
As stated by the Metropolitan Police Department, "Anyone who has any knowledge of this incident should take no action but call police at (202) 727-9099 or text your tip to the Department's TEXT TIP LINE at 50411."
