MILLERSVILLE, Md. (AP) – There was a break in the case of a man who fired shots on several occupied vehicles and the headquarters of the National Security Agency when he returned to the scene of the first shooting, police said Wednesday.
The 35-year-old Prince George’s County man was arrested Tuesday night near Arundel Mills mall, where shots were fired Feb. 24. A man driving away from a gas station near the mall was injured by glass shot out from his car, police said.
Shots were also fired on vehicles on a busy highway, near a Walmart, near a movie theater and on the NSA building. The locations were within a 12-mile radius in the Baltimore-Washington suburbs. No one was seriously hurt.
The suspect was arrested when police spotted a 1999 Lincoln Town Car that looked suspicious in a parking lot because the store near the mall was closed, police said. The car was also spotted at some of the other shootings.
No other details about the shooting suspect or a motive were immediately released. Police planned a news conference for Wednesday afternoon.
