Version 0 of 1. Two homicides were reported in separate incidents Monday in Prince George’s County. A man was killed at a gas station in the District Heights area at Walters Lane and Chavez Avenue on Monday night. Earlier, Kevin Jerome Johnson, 60, of Hillcrest Heights was found slain in the 3900 block of 23rd Parkway in Hillcrest Heights. — Dana Hedgpeth and Martin Weil Authorities are investigating the death of a woman found with gunshot wounds after her car crashed Saturday into a District Heights apartment building. Prince George’s County police identified the motorist Monday as Marquita Cherie Shalane Wimms, 32, of Temple Hills. No cause or manner of death has been determined, said police spokeswoman Julie Parker, and a “death investigation” is under way. Wimms’s car crashed on Rochelle Avenue and she died there, authorities said. — Lynh Bui The Supreme Court will not hear an appeal from former University of Virginia lacrosse player George W. Huguely V, who was convicted of killing his ex-girlfriend in Charlottesville. The justices Monday let stand a ruling upholding Huguely’s conviction in the 2010 death of fellow U-Va. student and lacrosse player Yeardley Love, 22. His attorneys argued that his trial should not have gone on after illness kept a defense lawyer from court. — Associated Press The man found fatally shot in the Hybla Valley area Sunday was identified Monday by Fairfax County police as Jose Anibar Cisneros, 34. He was found on Groveton Gardens Road about 3 a.m. — Dana Hedgpeth A man followed a woman home in the 1800 block of N. Scott Street about 2:30 a.m. Saturday and pushed her into bushes, Arlington police said. They said the 23-year-old woman was touched inappropriately. — Martin Weil Clouds floated across the sky Monday, but the sun and a lot of blue could be seen up there too, after several unremittingly gray days. Although nothing like what came down in South Carolina, rain fell here Thursday, Friday and Saturday, amounting to almost two inches at Reagan National Airport. In an apparent result, the Potomac River at Little Falls flowed at about 11 million gallons a minute Monday. Besides being brighter here, it was warmer, with conditions more closely reflecting what Washington expects of October and autumn. — Martin Weil |
