On June 16, 2016 at approximately 1:00 a.m. the Calvert
Control Center received calls for gunshots being heard in the area of Tranquil
Court. Calvert County Sheriff’s Office patrol units responded to the area of
213 Tranquil Court in reference to the firearms complaint. Upon arrival at the above stated address,
contact was made with the occupants of the residence. The occupants advised six gun shots had been
fired from the back of the residence which went through the window and then
into the ceiling. The trajectory of the shots indicated they had been fired
from the ground level at the rear of the residence.
The scene was secured, interviews were conducted, crime lab
responded and Detective Quinn assumed the investigation. The investigation is ongoing at this time.
Detective Quinn of the CCSO Criminal Investigations Bureau
assumed the investigation and a suspect was developed. It was determined the Tranquil Court incident
stemmed from a domestic issue with the suspect’s girlfriend and an associate.
On June 16, 2016 at approximately 6:00 p.m. members of the
Calvert County Sheriff’s Office located the suspect in this case at a residence
on Paris Oaks Road. The suspect jumped out of a window of the residence as
Special Operations Team and Criminal Investigation Bureau members arrived on
scene. A short foot chase ensued and the
suspect was taken into custody. The suspect in this case was identified as
Samuel Sherrod Green, a 22 year old black male of Chesapeake Beach.
