On May 4 at 4:20 p.m., officers responded to the 2200 block of Bonnie Lane in Waldorf for the report of a shooting.

Investigation revealed the victim, a 13-year-old male, was standing outside of his house with two family members when an SUV drove past his house. One of the occupants fired a gun several times toward the group, striking the victim in the upper part of his right leg. The victim was transported to a local hospital where he was treated for a non life-threatening injury. The suspects fled in a white, two-toned SUV with a tan or brown lower half, possibly an Isuzu or Nissan.

Detectives are in the process of establishing a motive and are looking into the possibility that someone other than the victim was the intended target.

Anyone with information is asked to call Detective J. Elliott of the Major Crimes Unit at (301) 609-6515. Callers wishing to remain anonymous may call Crime Solvers at 1-866-411-TIPS. A cash reward of up to $1,000 is being offered for the tip that leads to the arrest and indictment of the suspect(s).
