On December 23 between 1:30 a.m. – 2 a.m., an 18-year-old male and three friends had just withdrawn money at a drive-thru ATM at 3070 Leonardtown Road in Waldorf.
Afterwards, the victim parked his car to the side of the bank and exited his vehicle momentarily. At that point, he was approached by four men in a silver car who asked for help fixing a flat tire. Two of the men displayed handguns and demanded the victim’s wallet. The victim refused and one suspect fired a shot, striking the victim in his leg.
The victim’s friends drove him to a nearby hospital where they called the police. The victim was treated for a non life-threatening injury. Officers canvassed the area and processed the scene for evidence.
The Major Crimes Unit is investigating.
