WALDORF, Md. – Detectives assigned to the Criminal Investigations Division identified a suspect in a shooting case that occurred on March 6, 2022 in the 3000 block of Gallery Place in Waldorf.
In the case, two groups of suspects were shooting at each other in the parking lot of an apartment complex when one of the bullets went through a window of an apartment and struck a male in the lower body.
The victim, who was not involved in the incident, was transported to a hospital where he was treated.
Through investigation, detectives identified Marquis Malik Springs, 20, of Waldorf, as one of the shooters and an arrest warrant was obtained. On October 7, Springs was observed by an officer near Gallery Place.

” two groups of suspects were shooting at each other in the parking lot of an apartment complex” & “possession of a machine gun for an aggressive purpose”
One would wonder what it takes to get Terrorist Laws enforced.
Excellent question. While I disagree with the gun laws the behavior in this case should she the violators locked away for life.
The catch and release you BOTS mention is a myth.
