FORESTVILLE, Md. — An armored truck employee shot and killed a man inside of a Starbucks near the Forestville Mall on Wednesday afternoon, the Prince George's County Police Department said.
Around 2 p.m., the armored truck employee went into the Starbucks in the 3400 block of Donnell Drive. A man who was not an employee of the Starbucks went behind the counter and there was an altercation.
At some point, the armored truck employee fired his weapon – striking the man multiple times, killing him. The man shot was identified by police as 35-year-old Jonathan Griffin of Upper Marlboro, Maryland.
Police said the armored truck employee was there conducting "official business" and wasn't there to get coffee. They also said Griffin did not appear to be a customer.
It wasn't clear what the altercation was that led to the shooting. The circumstances of the shooting are under investigation, and police say there is security camera footage being reviewed, which captured the scene.
The police department has not said if anyone is in custody.
Brinks, the armored truck company whose employee was involved in the shooting, released a statement Wednesday evening.
"We can confirm that one of our employees was involved in an incident at 3450 Donnell Drive in Forestville, Maryland," said spokesperson Dana Callahan. "We are actively supporting law enforcement officials in their investigation and cannot comment further at this time."
Prince George's County Police and the State's Attorney's Office are handling an investigation into the shooting jointly.
