The Prince George’s County Police Department’s Homicide Unit identified and charged a 17-year-old male from Temple Hills in connection with a fatal shooting that occurred in late December. The suspect is charged with fatally shooting 29-year-old Harvey Jones Jr. of Temple Hills. The suspect is charged as an adult.


On December 27, 2024, at approximately 12:30 am, officers responded to a shooting in the 6100 block of Oxon Hill Road. Officers located the victim outside suffering from gunshot wounds. He was taken to the hospital where he was pronounced dead.


The preliminary investigation suggests the shooting stemmed from a dispute. At this time, the investigation has not revealed a connection between the suspect and victim. With the assistance of the Calvert County Sheriff’s Office, the PGPD’s Fugitive Unit took the teen into custody in Calvert County.

No perp picture?

I wish they would tell us how a 17 year old ended up with a gun in order to kill someone that disrespected him. Pretty sure that gun wasn't legit.
