Pr. George's high school student shot, killed walking to school A Prince George's County high school student was shot and killed walking to school this morning in Capitol Heights, police said. Marckel Norman Ross, 18, who lived in the 400 block of Abel Avenue, was found lying on the ground in the 6100 block of Old Central Avenue just before 7 a.m., authorities said. Julie Parker, a Prince George's County police spokeswoman, said officers were first called there for reports of a man down and arrived to find Ross shot to death. Parker said investigators have "no motive in this case," which is in its early stages. She said detectives were canvassing the neighborhood where the shooting occurred and talking to other high school students. Charoscar Coleman, the principal at Central High School, said Ross was an 11th grader who participated in a program called Showtime Couture for students interested in modeling and fashion. He said Ross was a "strong student" whose "bright spirit" would be missed. "He was beloved, and we're going to miss him greatly," Coleman said. This was a young man who deserved to live. Coleman said grief counselors had been dispatched to the school to help students who might be overcome by the "emotion of the moment." Asked if there were any conflicts inside the school that might have sparked the incident, Coleman said officials primary focus was helping students" cope and deferred to investigators. "Right now, we're concerned about the well being of our students," Coleman said. The investigation is ongoing. More information will be added as it becomes available.
