Arrest Made in Killing of Philanthropist Robert Fuller at Maryland Senior Facility

Police plan a 3 p.m. briefing with Maryland State Police to address a possible link to a Baltimore traffic‑stop shooting.

Overview

  • Montgomery County police said Wednesday they arrested a suspect in the Feb. 14 shooting death of Robert Fuller Jr. inside his apartment at Cogir Potomac Senior Living.
  • Fuller, 87, was found with a gunshot wound to the head and his death was ruled a homicide by the medical examiner.
  • Details on the suspect and charges are set to be released at a 3 p.m. news conference in Montgomery County.
  • Maryland State Police officials will attend to discuss a potential connection between the homicide and a person who fired at a trooper during a Baltimore traffic stop.
  • Investigators last week released surveillance video of a person on the senior facility grounds around the time of the killing, and Fuller was widely known for philanthropy, including a $1.64 million gift to Cony High School in 2021.
