Police have arrested a suspect for murder in connection with a March 31 homicide.

That day, Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) officers found four individuals suffering from gunshot wounds on the 1300 Block of Congress Street, SE.

The victims were transported to a local hospital, where a male and a female were pronounced dead. The victims who succumbed to their injuries were 25-year-old George Evans III, and 28-year-old Keosha Ferguson.

Later, police discovered there was a fifth victim seeking treatment at another hospital.

All of the other victims received treatment for non-life threatening injuries.

One of the suspects in this case has been identified as 25 year-old Tarik Turner. He was arrested for second-degree murder while armed in connection with Furguson’s death on April 28.
