PRINCE GEORGE'S COUNTY, Md. (ABC7) — Seven years ago today, police found Brandon Ramone Johnson of District Heights shot to death in Suitland.
Patrol officers responded to a call at about 3:15 am on December 7, 2013.
They found Johnson dead in a parking lot in the 4900 block of Suitland Road, according to a statement from Prince George’s County Police.
Although it’s called a cold case, detectives have continued to work on the case, which they believe was not a random shooting.
“This case has weighed heavily on me since the early morning hours of December 7, 2013,” says Detective Victoria Tyler, the lead detective with the Cold Case Unit.
“I was called out as the assigned investigator to this horrendous murder. I later discovered that Brandon was killed a week before his 18th birthday.”
On the seventh anniversary of Johnson’s murder, police are asking again for the public’s help in identifying the shooter.
“I will not rest until Brandon’s killer is charged and convicted for this horrific act that was committed against him.” Tyler says.
Prince George’s County Police:
A reward of up to $25,000 is being offered for information leading to an arrest and indictment in this case.
