Police have identified the two victims shot and killed outside of the Arundel Mills Mall last Friday night.
Investigators say 30-year-old Chonsay Laquez Green of Capitol Heights and 25-year-old Jeneen Desiree Dunn of Greenbelt were shot and killed by James Edward Coleman of District Heights.
Coleman was later killed at a home in District Heights after an exchange of gunfire with police.
Using information from witnesses, Anne Arundel County Police tracked Coleman's vehicle from Arundel Mills to a house in the 8100 block of Rydal Road in District Heights, Md., on Saturday morning. They then called for backup from Prince George's County Police.
Cpl. Henry Tippett, a police spokesman, says 22-year-old James Coleman was killed today after emerging from a District Heights home with two guns. He says Coleman shot one officer in the torso with a shotgun, but the officer is expected to survive. Six officers are believed to have opened fire.
Tippett says Coleman was suspected in the fatal shooting hours earlier of two people in the parking lot of the Arundel Mills Mall. The motive in those shootings wasn’t immediately clear.
Tippett says Prince George’s police went to the home based on information and tips received by the Anne Arundel police.
