PRINCE GEORGE'S COUNTY, Md. — Editor's Note: This video is from June 2022 about violent crime being down in Prince George's County.
The Prince George's County Police Department (PGPD) is investigating two separate unrelated homicides after a teen and man were shot to death.
Police were called to the Seat Pleasant Drive by the Sugar Shack convenience store in Capitol Heights, around 8:45 p.m. Friday for a report of a teen shot.
When officers arrived at the scene, they found a teen suffering from apparent gunshot wounds. The boy was taken to the hospital in critical conditions, where he died from his injuries a short time later.
A little more than five hours later, PGPD was called to a shooting at the 12900 block of William Beanes Road in Upper Marlboro. Officers arrived at a man outside suffering from gunshot wounds.
He was pronounced dead by medical personnel.
The victims' identities from these shootings have not been released.
Detectives are working to develop a motive and suspects for both of these fatal shootings. Anyone who has any information regarding these incidents is urged to contact PG Crime Solvers at 1-866-411-TIPS.
