We are following a developing story out of Prince George's County,
Langley Park, to be more specific,
where one teenage girl was killed and another critically injured.
Bob Barner now joins us with the latest.
Bob, what can you tell us?
Yeah, Guy, that's the sad reality,
that there is a teenage girl, not sure her precise age,
but was shot and killed here at about 1:50 this morning,
and another girl was critically
injured, taken to the hospital,
and I just kind of want to show you where we are.
We're just kind of inside the fence here,
and I think you might be able to see the police
tape.
This is behind an apartment community called
the Villages at Langley, and in this kind
kind of field area behind the buildings is where.
The shooting took place
and where that teenage girl sadly lost her life this morning and the
other one was quickly rushed to the hospital.
I want to play for you a video. It's some video
that a neighbor shot, but also the first thing you're going
to see is video from a neighbor's
home security camera. It's an image of the scene
and you'll hear the gunshots, about 10 of them.
And he says the time was exactly 1:47 this morning.
I don't know if you were able to hear them,
but there were a number of gunshots,
and this was the scene afterward that the neighbor recorded.
Prince George's County Police tell us,
and you see one of the victims being loaded into the ambulance there,
a very sad scene here overnight.
Prince George's County Police tell us they don't believe
this was a random shooting,
that for whatever reason these two girls were likely targeted.
We're not sure what it was about, so no suspects, no motive.
But the people who live in this area tell us
that this is just the latest.
Deadly violence in this very neighborhood within a quarter mile radius.
Just last Thursday, an 18-year-old man was found shot
and killed just up the street here
at the Langley Park Rec Center on the grounds of the Rec Center.
And then back in late June,
Shamari Stone did a whole report about a 16-year-old boy
who was shot and killed right here, just up the street here.
And one of the things that people tell us
who live in this area is that for about the past year or so.
Food vendors at night have been setting up,
and we'll have video of that we can show you later on Fox 5,
where they just set up, it looks like
a flea market, right on the street here.
And this is Merrimack Drive here in Langley Park.
And they believe, the neighbors believe, that the food vendors,
again, it becomes kind of like
an unofficial food flea market here at night.
That that is bringing in some of the element
that is leading to this gun violence.
So another neighbor says this could be gangs as far as the people
who live here are concerned.
They just don't know, but they'd like it to stop.
And the most recent deadly violence, unfortunately,
has claimed the life of a young girl, a teenage girl, excuse me, guy.
And another one teenage girl is fighting for her life in the hospital.
Yeah, just truly pulls at the heartstrings, Bob.
Of course, the Homicide Unit detectives now asking
for further information.
If you have some, by the way, to call 301-516-2512.
That's 301-516-2512.
Bob, great work as always.
You bet, guy.
All right, folks, we'll take a quick break.
This is the Live Zone.
