A 57-year-old Georgia man was shot to death in a domestic incident while visiting family in Maryland, according to reports.
The Montgomery County Emergency Communications Center received a call about a shooting in the 4500 block of Mount Olney Lane on Saturday at around 8:24 p.m., according to officials.
When officers with the Montgomery County Department of Police arrived, they learned that the suspect, 25-year-old Nicholas Marquis Stull, was possibly inside the house where he lived with his grandparents and was armed.
Officers also learned that 57-year-old Michael Wayne Stull had been shot and was also inside the house. Michael is a city of Douglas employee.
