On Aug. 10, a prosecutor said he would hand over evidence in a murder case to defense attorney Ronald Resetarits.
Gary Massey, 24, is charged with second-degree murder while armed for allegedly shooting Gregory Mayo, 29, on March 29.
According to court documents, a Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) officer heard gunshots while traveling eastbound on the 500 block of Alabama Avenue, SE. He then drove to the 3000 block of 7th Street, SE, where he found a Nissan Altima and Toyota Camry involved in an accident. Mayo had been shot twice in the back.
Additional MPD officers who responded to the scene saw two people running. One of them escaped but the other, who documents identify as the defendant, was arrested. A firearm was later recovered in a bush around Massey’s flight path.
DC Superior Court Judge Juliet McKenna scheduled Massey’s next hearing for Oct. 26.
