LUSBY, MD — Calvert County Sheriff’s detectives have arrested two suspects, including a 16-year-old charged as an adult, in connection with the shooting of a woman in Lusby on Thursday morning.
Deputies responded around 11:38 a.m. on June 5 to the 700 block of Spruce Drive, where a woman reported being shot while parked on Field Road. The 24-year-old victim from Prince Frederick was found with a gunshot wound to her lower back and transported to a trauma center with non-life-threatening injuries.
Investigators learned the woman had arranged to meet two males in the area of Evergreen Drive and Field Road. A white SUV arrived at the scene, and a male exited the vehicle before gunshots were heard. The suspect returned to the SUV, which fled the area at high speed.
Detectives located the SUV on Pine Trail and later conducted a traffic stop on Catalina Road, arresting Steven Anthony Gilner Jr., 18, of Lusby. A second suspect, a 16-year-old male, was apprehended after fleeing on foot from a home on H.G. Trueman Road. A search of the residence recovered evidence tied to the case.
Both suspects face charges including attempted first-degree murder, armed robbery with a firearm, and possession of a firearm under the age of 21.
