MURDER USA: One shot was all it took to put Rufus Clark six feet under

CAMP SPRINGS, MD. –  It wasn’t a lucky night on May 21, 2019, for Rufus Vijay Clark who became another statistic for PG County officials to use to attract larger and better funeral homes to the bloody and murderous sprawling suburban county just outside of Washington, D. C.

Akram Hussein for murder of Cesar Zayas

Homicide Unit detectives charged a suspect in connection with a homicide in Beltsville. The suspect is 25-year-old Akram Abdi Hussein of 3206 Curtis Drive in Temple Hills, Md.

Hussein is charged with first- and second-degree murder and, as of May 28, 2019, is in the custody of the Department of Corrections on a no-bond status.  A hearing is set in Prince Georges District Court on June 26, 2019 in Upper Marlboro.
