Silver Spring, MD – Detectives from the 3rd District Investigative Section are appealing to the public for assistance in identifying suspects involved in a shooting incident that occurred on Thursday, January 25, 2024, at the intersection of Colesville Road and Second Avenue in downtown Silver Spring.
According to preliminary investigations, the incident unfolded at approximately 11:50 p.m. when four suspects traveling in a gray 2008-2011 Toyota Camry stopped their vehicle on Colesville Road. The suspects exited their car and approached an adult male pedestrian walking on the sidewalk. Without provocation, the suspects initiated a physical assault on the victim. Amidst the assault, one of the suspects brandished a handgun and fired multiple shots, injuring the primary victim. Tragically, an innocent bystander in the vicinity was also struck by gunfire intended for the original victim. Following the attack, the suspects swiftly fled the scene in the Toyota Camry.
Both adult male victims sustained non-life-threatening injuries and were promptly transported to nearby hospitals for treatment.
Surveillance footage captured images of the suspects, which have been released to aid in their identification and apprehension.
