Police are searching for a suspect who shot and killed a person Wednesday evening in Bladensburg, Maryland. 

The victim has been identified as 28-year-old Brandon Iziah Green.

Gunshots were heard near an apartment complex in the 5400 block of Newton Street at about 7:30 p.m., and Prince George’s County police and fire crews responded.

On scene, authorities found one unresponsive male suffering from multiple gunshot wounds. 

He was pronounced dead at the scene. Detectives have not determined the victim’s exact age. 

Police canvassed the area for a suspect they believe fled in a car. No arrests have been made.

“So, investigators are looking to see if anybody witnessed it, and then, once the property managers get here, they’ll be able to see if they can look at cameras anything like that,” Cpl. Unique Jones said.

Officers hope someone in the apartment complex witnessed the shooting. The complex has hundreds of units.

The motive for the shooting was not immediately known.

A reward of up to $25,000 is being offered for any information that can lead to an arrest.
