The Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) continues to investigate a fatal shooting that occurred March 17 on the intersection of 7th and P Streets, NW, and seeks the public’s assistance in identifying and locating a suspect vehicle.
According to MPD documents, officers responded to the location for the report of a shooting. When they arrived, they located three men and two women in the 600 block of P Street, NW, all suffering from gunshot wounds. All five victims were transported to local hospitals for the treatment of their injuries. Two additional men were located with gunshot wounds. They died at the scene.
The motive for the shooting is still under investigation, but the preliminary investigation suggests that one or more suspects intentionally discharged a firearm at the victims.
The victims were identified as 32-year-old Anthony Brown and 32-year-old Jay Lucks.
A vehicle of interest, believed to be a black Infiniti, was captured by nearby surveillance footage.
MPD offers a reward to anyone that provides information which leads to the arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for each homicide in the District.
