Police in Anne Arundel County, Maryland have arrested Hong Young, 35, in connection to five separate shootings spanning eight days in Maryland.
Investigators believe Young, a former Maryland corrections officer who resigned in May, is the sole shooter in the case.
On the morning of February 24, a 61-year-old man driving an SUV pulled out of a gas station near the Anne Arundel Shopping Center. The driver of a blue-gray 1999 Lincoln town car fired gunshots at the SUV, shattering its windows.
The victim drove to a nearby home, where he asked someone to call police because he did not speak English. Police did not find a connection between the suspect and victim.
Anne Arundel County Police released surveillance footage of the suspect’s car four days later.
On March 2, police received reports of two shootings, both before 6 a.m. The first was reported at the Walmart Supercenter in Laurel.
The second occurred at the AMC Theater at The Mall in Columbia. A cleaning crew at the theater reported hearing multiple gunshots around 5:10 a.m.
The fourth shooting occurred March 3 around 3 p.m. along the Intercounty Connector between Interstate 25 and Route 29. The bullets appeared to come from a nearby wooded area and struck a dump truck’s windshield. The two drivers suffered minor injuries from shattered glass and bullet fragments.
Around 5 p.m., police received reports of gunshots fired at a campus building of the National Surveillance Agency in Fort Meade.
Two Anne Arundel County police cruisers conducted a traffic stop around 6:30pm Tuesday after spotting a vehicle matching the Lincoln’s description.
The police reportedly found a .380 caliber pistol and bullet casings. Initial ballistics tests linked the weapon to four of the shootings, according to Prince George’s County Police.
Young is married but filed for divorce on September 24, according to the Baltimore Sun.
