Do you know who killed Kevin James Muse and Samuel Joshua Paige in 2015? In the early hours of May 11, 2016, a burst of gunfire shattered the quiet of a District Heights, Maryland neighborhood, leaving two men dead in what police believe was a targeted robbery attempt. One of the victims was 26-year-old Kevin Muse.
The grim discovery was made around 4:30 a.m. in the 6500 block of Halleck Street. Officers initially responded to a call for a car that had crashed into a tree in the 6400 block of Gateway Boulevard.
Inside the vehicle, they found Muse, who had sustained gunshot wounds. Not far from the crash scene, around the corner, another man, later identified as 27-year-old Samuel Page of Suitland, was also found suffering from gunshot wounds. Both men were pronounced dead.
Investigators quickly determined that the double homicide was not a random act of violence. The prevailing theory was that Muse and Page were the targets of a robbery. Despite the targeted nature of the attack, authorities did not immediately release information about any potential suspects.
The deaths of Kevin Muse and Samuel Page added to a string of violence that had troubled Prince George's County. In the years following the murders, there have been no public announcements regarding any arrests or the identification of any suspects in the case. The investigation into the deaths of Kevin Muse and Samuel Page remains ongoing.
