Metropolitan Police Department officials said that Gill's carjacking incident was one of the many incidents in a recent violent string of armed carjackings across D.C. and Maryland.

Just two hours later, around 7 p.m. on Monday night, police confirmed to FOX 5 that the same gunman attempted to carjack a person nearby. 

About 10 minutes later, police say the gunman approached two people on the sidewalk and demanded their vehicle at gunpoint.

The suspect allegedly shot one man before stealing his car, a 2016 Chrysler 200, and drove off. 

Authorities confirmed to FOX 5 that the man, who was shot, died at a nearby hospital following the shooting.

Police said that the stolen Chrysler 200 was recovered in a nearby local park in Prince George's County in Maryland.

Authorities believe that the suspect abandoned the vehicle before he carjacked the driver of a Toyota Camry.

After abandoning the Camry, Carroll said the alleged carjacker ordered a rideshare pickup and carjacked the driver's Nissan Rogue.

Around 2:30 a.m., authorities said that the suspect fired shots at a Maryland State Police trooper who was assisting a disabled vehicle along an Interstate. 

The gunfire struck the hood of the police cruise, and no one was injured.

Approximately 30 minutes later, police say the gunman opened fire on a D.C. police officer's vehicle. The bullets struck the driver’s side door. The officer was not injured and was able to provide a description of the vehicle.

State and local authorities worked together to locate the suspect and by early Tuesday, the suspected gunman was shot and killed by New Carrollton police officers in Prince George's County.
