We&#8217;ve been looking for him ever since. We looked everywhere for this individual. At this point, what we&#8217;ve determined is that that we want to reach out to the public and have the public help us locate this individual.&#8221;Police said Gray is 6 feet, 1 inch tall and weighs 190 pounds. They also said he has a distinct tattoo on the front of his neck.Police released a photo of Gray as well as of the suspected vehicle from the incident. He was last known to be driving a 2007 Nissan Altima with tinted windows and Virginia license plates of SXM-4392.&#8221;From all indications, he is from Baltimore. His last-known address is in East Baltimore. We&#8217;ve been looking for him down there. It&#8217;s possible that he has taken that Virginia tag off that car and put it on another car, and I think everybody knows how I feel about Virginia tags. I know how people with Virginia tags drive and the way they don&#8217;t abide by our laws in Maryland,&#8221; McCullough said.A man who answered the door at the East Baltimore address would only tell WBAL-TV 11 News that Gray hadn&#8217;t been seen there in a while.People in the neighborhood said Gray should surrender.&#8221;I&#8217;m tired of young kids losing their life senselessly, like, it hurts. It just doesn&#8217;t just hurt the parent, it hurts the community. It hurts,&#8221; said Regina Jones, of Baltimore. &#8220;Even me, as a parent, I look at the TV, that little boy is a reflection of my little boy. I think he needs to turn himself in. If he knows he did wrong, then turn yourself in because you can&#8217;t run that long.&#8221;Police said they consider Gray armed and dangerous and people should immediately call 911 or 410-887-3700.Court documents obtained by WBAL-TV 11 News reveal Gray has a long, violent criminal history dating back to 2016 with several court hearings listed for domestic violence. He has also faced drug possession, first-degree assault and gun charges. His record includes a guilty plea in 2018 on second-degree attempted murder, for which he was sentenced to seven years in prison.\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\tTOWSON, Md. \u2014 \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>Baltimore County police are searching for a suspect in connection with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wbaltv.com\/article\/towson-university-student-killed-york-road-shooting\/71528239\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">fatal shooting of Towson University student Nasir Majied.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Police are asking the public&#8217;s help in finding Reginald Gray Jr., 33, who is wanted in connection with the fatal shooting <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wbaltv.com\/article\/towson-circle-shooting-june-5-2026\/71508745\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">on York Road near the Towson Circle on June 5<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Early indications, it looks like it&#8217;s a case of road rage,&#8221; Baltimore County Police Chief Robert McCullough told WBAL NewsRadio 1090 AM and 101.5 FM. &#8220;Our detectives, within the first 48 hours of that investigation, had identified the suspect, his vehicle.
