Charles County Sheriff’s detectives are seeking the public’s help in locating the suspect wanted in connection with a shooting / homicide that occurred last month. On October 23, the victim, Aden Christopher Garcia, 19, of Waldorf, was a passenger inside a car in the 2700 block of Albemarle Place in Waldorf when he was shot. He was driven to an area in Prince George’s County where someone called 9-1-1. Garcia was then transported to a hospital where he was pronounced deceased the following day. Detectives pursued leads and were able to identify the shooter as Jontez Davon Dorsey, 22, of Waldorf. Further investigation revealed Garcia was intentionally targeted. Investigators obtained an arrest warrant charging Dorsey with first-degree murder and other related charges. Dorsey is 6’0” tall, weighs approximately 160 lbs., and has a tattoo on his neck that says “ZIAH”. Dorsey is known to frequent areas in Charles County, Prince George’s County, and Washington, D.C. Anyone with information about Jontez Dorsey’s whereabouts is asked not to approach him but rather call 9-1-1.
