In the early morning hours of July 31, 2021, a burst of gunfire in the Lewisdale area of Hyattsville, Maryland, left 44-year-old Angel Antonio Olivares of Capitol Heights dead. Officers arrived to the 6700 block of 22nd Place around 3:20 a.m. and found a van had crashed; Olivares was in the driver’s seat with gunshot wounds and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Two women were also inside the van and suffered gunshot injuries but survived. Investigators reported that the suspect and the victims were believed not to have known each other and that the motive remained under investigation.

A year later, in July 2022, an arrest was announced in connection with the attack: 37-year-old Reginald Howell Jr. of Silver Spring was taken into custody and charged with first- and second-degree murder for Olivares’s death and with attempted first- and second-degree murder for the two injured women; he was held without bond.

Does anyone have information about the Lewisdale shooting or the people involved that could help clarify what happened?
