WASHINGTON, D.C. — Authorities are seeking assistance in identifying a vehicle believed to be connected to a Sunday afternoon shooting in Southeast Washington, which left one man injured, officials announced Monday.
The incident occurred around 3:40 p.m. on October 27 in the 2200 block of Savannah Street, SE. Responding officers found an adult male who was conscious and alert but had suffered a gunshot wound. The victim was transported to a local hospital, where he is being treated for non-life-threatening injuries.
A nearby surveillance camera captured images of a vehicle associated with the incident, and police have released photos of the car in an effort to gather information from the public. Investigators are hoping someone will recognize the vehicle and come forward.
The Metropolitan Police Department is offering a reward of up to $10,000 for information that leads to an arrest and conviction in this case.
Anyone with information about the vehicle or the shooting is urged to avoid direct involvement. Instead, they should contact police at (202) 727-9099 or submit tips anonymously via the TEXT TIP LINE at 50411.
