End
[Oct. 5, 2006] Takoma Park detectives have arrested a Prince George’s County man on charges related to a shooting incident Oct. 1at a restaurant in the 7400 block of New Hampshire Avenue. Mischa A. Walker, 25, of 16th Avenue, is charged with two counts of attempted murder, two of first degree assault, and additional weapons charges
The investigation suggests a group of young men, some of whom are Takoma Park residents, approached the restaurant at about 3:30 a.m. and engaged in a verbal altercation with another man, Walker. He displayed a handgun, firing once outside and at least once inside the entryway to the establishment before fleeing in a car.
Two victims were treated at local hospitals. One was released the same day. The other remains hospitalized.
Nothing yet known suggests that incident is related to a Sept. 24 incident shortly after midnight. In that event, a group of about 20 young male diners entered into a food fight in the restaurant, with some physical punches also exchanged. During the commotion, the teens left the restaurant without paying for their meals. No physical injuries were reported.
Takoma Park Police responded about 3:30 a.m. on Sunday, Oct. 1 for a shooting in the 7400 block of New Hampshire Avenue. Two men were transported to area hospitals with non-life-threatening injuries.
Initial investigation suggests that a group of men coming to a restaurant engaged in some type of confrontation outside. As they entered, two men were injured by shots fired.
The description of the suspect is a black male, 6' to 6'1", 150-160 lbs, short bushy hair, and dressed in all black. A silver Nissan 350Z was seen on New Hampshire Avenue, lights off and traveling at high speed, immediately after the incident.
Takoma Park Police ask that anyone who witnessed the event, contact them at 301/270-1100.
