A new alert was issued by the Rockville City Police Department on Wednesday afternoon as the hunt for 41-year-old Walter Giovanni Marquez-Aviles, who remains at large nearly a week after hitting three people near an area courthouse.
The Gaithersburg resident was involved in the crash at around 2:30 p.m. on Thursday, Dec. 14 near the 100 block of East Montgomery Avenue.
On Wednesday, the department released Marquez-Aviles' photo after he crashed his dark-colored SUV and fled the area, two of whom - a 79-year-old woman and 18-year-old man - remain hospitalized days after the incident.
Marquez-Aviles is wanted for three counts each of attempted murder and first-degree assault.
Anyone with information regarding Marquez-Aviles or his whereabouts has been asked to contact police in Rockville by calling (240) 314-8938.
