A young person who died Saturday after being delivered to a local hospital suffering from a gunshot wound has been identified as 18-year-old Anthony Sanchez, MPD press officer Ariz Alali said Saturday afternoon.
Sanchez was shot in an undetermined location, Alali said, though a preliminary investigation has revealed that the shooting may have been near Columbia Road and Sherman Avenue in Northwest DC.
Councilmember Jim Graham said earlier Saturday that the victim was a ward of the Department of Youth Rehabilitation Services.
