The Montgomery County Police Department (MCPD) is investigating a shooting and separate homicide that occurred in the Fairland neighborhood on Wednesday night.
According to preliminary information, 3rd District officers and Fire Rescue personnel were dispatched at approximately 7:54 p.m. to the 3400 block of Robey Terrace, where an adult male was found with a gunshot wound. Police say the victim was reportedly shot in the area of Aston Manor Drive and then ran to Robey Terrace, where 9-1-1 was called. He was transported to a local hospital alert and conscious.
At about 9:06 p.m., while canvassing the surrounding area, K-9 officers discovered the body of an adult male in the 13800 block of Aston Manor Drive. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
