Raymond Spencer news – Police name ‘person of interest’ in Washington, DC shooting on Twitter after ‘social media clues’

RAYMOND Spencer is now “a person of interest” in connection to the Washington DC shooting rampage near a school that left four people injured, police say.

His picture was released on Twitter after a shooter, who is at large, opened fire near Edmund Burke School, injuring a juvenile and three adults, two of whom are in critical condition.

Assistant Chief of the Metropolitan Police Department Stuart Emerman said: “We would like [Spencer] to come forward to the police, turn himself in so we may speak with him further as a person of interest.”

“His name came up through some of the social media things that we have seen so far,” Emerman said, after naming the 23-year-old Spencer from Fairfax, Virginia.

“We want to have a conversation with him, we want to figure out what’s going on, if he is involved in this or not in any way, shape, or form. We don’t know if he is in the area, we are working to determine if he is or is not.”

Cops in DC are also working to authenticate a disturbing video that appears to show the shooter firing multiple shots in the area in question but this clip has yet to be verified.
