Maurice Magruder Jr., 20, was shot and killed in Landover, Maryland on the afternoon of Tuesday, June 23, 2020. Officers found him about 1:50 p.m. in the 3100 block of Duvall Ridge Road; he was taken to a nearby hospital and pronounced dead a short time later.

Investigators identified 22-year-old Ricardo Figueroa Jr. of Landover as the alleged shooter. Police say the two men knew each other and that the incident began as a dispute that turned into a physical fight, during which Figueroa allegedly fired the fatal shots. The police did not treat the shooting as random.

Ricardo Figueroa Jr. was taken into custody within days and charged with first- and second-degree murder and related counts; a commissioner ordered he be held at the Department of Corrections without bond. If anyone has information about Maurice or the events that led to his death, please come forward.
