On the evening of May 6, 2022, gunfire shattered a neighborhood on the 7100 block of Donnell Place in Forestville, Maryland. Prince George’s County officers arrived around 8:05 p.m. and found 32-year-old Donnie Lorenzo McMillan suffering from a gunshot wound outside an apartment building. He was taken to a nearby hospital but died a short time later.

Investigators say the shooting stemmed from an attempted carjacking that escalated into the fatal encounter. The Prince George’s County Police Homicide Unit continued the investigation for months. In October 2022 the unit charged 25-year-old Marx Carlton Jackson of District Heights with first- and second-degree murder and other related counts; he was held by the Department of Corrections on no-bond status.

If anyone has information about McMillan, his movements that evening, or the attempted carjacking, please come forward.
