Rockville shooting leaves victim in critical condition


Rockville City police responded to a report of a shooting in the 400 block of College Parkway yesterday afternoon, just before 4:30 PM. Officers arriving at the scene found an adult male victim outside of a residence suffering from a gunshot wound to the abdominal area. Out of an abundance of caution, police coordinated with security personnel at the nearby Rockville campus of Montgomery College, resulting in a lockdown of the campus. Ultimately, officers determined that the shooting was not in any way related to the college, and that there was no danger to students or staff there.

The victim was transported to a local hospital, where he was listed in critical condition Friday evening. Rockville police were deployed in the College Gardens neighborhood overnight, to assist as detectives investigated the incident and attempted to identify and locate the shooter, and to reassure the community. 

Anyone with any information about the shooting is asked to contact the Rockville City Police Department at 240-314-8900, or Cpl. Andreas Floros at AFloros@RockvilleMD.Gov.

    1. If a police ever wants to stop and frisk me, I should have a mechanism to defend myself from police for coming on to me. Violently or not.

    2. I don't understand your comment,but stop and frisk was a tactic used by police throughout the United States for many years, and the country was much safer because of it.Stop and frisk has been reinstated by Democratic Governor Hochul and Eric Adam's in New York City because crime is so bad.Sounds like you need to get out of your BLM phase and come back into the real world.

    3. Stop and frisk is 100% unconstitutional, move to a country without rights if that’s the policy you want

    4. If stop and frisk is unconstitutional, why is Mayor Eric Adams and Governor Hochul both from New York using Stop and Frisk in New York City? Don't believe the liberal newspapers, they will not give you a balanced view, only left leaning view from major news organizations.

    5. Does stop and frisk violate your fourth amendment rights to own an illegal glock you nit wit?

    6. @4:34 - Stop and frisk was never stopped by the NYPD and is only practiced by NYC not the State of NY. The Gov. has nothing to do with this practice in the rest of the state. Let's be clear with the facts. BTW, you should leave your BLM racist plug in your posterior opening.

  4. Ultimately the police officers acknowledged
    The Maryland's Premier Community College
    Had no hint, warning or any prior knowledge
    In order to prepare for this serious challenge.

  5. North Korea is also extremely safe by your standards, you freedom hating thug. I don’t want corrupt police to randomly stop me when I’m minding my business.

    1. Then enjoy your increasing crime wave and being unsafe. There have been numerous stabbings and shootings in Rockville in the last two years, please explain your proposal to end the crime in Rockville. If the police are allowed to do their job,crime will decrease, if the police are not allowed to do their job, you will get more of the shootings and stabbings and more crime. You must be a defund the Police person

    2. The crime rate in Rockville has been declining almost without interruption for more than 35 years now. It's sad that you're so afraid of the world around you.

  6. Another ruined once great neighborhood; anyone around these posts read Moco Perspective? The County is in a 20 year economic decline. Guess who has run this place into the ground?

      Are they holed up in the bowels of the North Tower?

    3. Per usual leftist, they have no intellectual ability to assess, acknowledge and rectify situations that are caused by their failed policies. Everyone is doing exactly that, leaving because they recognize the failed state MoCo vis a vis Fairfax.

  7. Go back to DC and shoot up your own neighborhoods. Leave us alone in (once) peaceful Rockville.
