Police in Washington, D.C. are searching for two armed men wanted for homicide after a surveillance tape showed them killing a man to rob a liquor store.
James Oh, 75, died of a head trauma in the robbery, which occurred last Friday, police said. The tape shows the men in masks forcing their way behind the store’s counter and pushing a person to the ground. The two men, one in a gray hooded sweatshirt and the other in a black hooded sweatshirt, fled the scene in a black Jeep Cherokee.
“Upon arrival, they located an adult male semi-conscious and suffering from head trauma,”[They] transported the victim to a local hospital where he succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced dead.”
Examiners will soon perform an autopsy and determine the exact cause of Oh’s death.
Police are offering a reward up to $25,000 to anyone who provides information that could lead to the arrest and conviction of the two men. Anyone with knowledge of their whereabouts is asked to call (202) 272-9099. Anonymous information may be submitted by text messaging 50411.
