The boy confessed to shooting Abdul Rauf Khan while he was trying to break into his car on Dunlap Street in Hillcrest Heights around 5:30 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 26, authorities in Prince George's County said.
Police responding to perform a welfare check found Kahn lying in the middle of the road. He was taken to a hospital where he later died.
