A $25,000 reward is being offered for information that leads to the arrest of a man suspected of stabbing a Forestville man to death.

The Prince George’s County Police Department says Theodore Van Weeks III, 28, of Walters Lane in Forestville was killed Tuesday night. Officers were called to the 3300 block of Walters Lane about 6:20 p.m. for the report of a stabbing.

Police located the crime scene, but not the victim. A few minutes later, officers learned a relative had driven Weeks to the nearby Maryland State Police Barrack in Forestville for help. He was rushed to a hospital, where he died a short time later.

Detectives believe Weeks was outside his home when he argued with the suspect. During that argument, the suspect stabbed Weeks. Police say the fight does not appear to be a random act.

Investigators are working to identify the suspect and motive in this case.

Anyone with information about this homicide is asked to call the Prince George’s County Police Department at 301-772-4925.
