DC Gay Man Shot Dead

Police in Washington, D.C., are investigating the murder of 29-year-old gay man Anthony J. Perkins, who they say was found shot to death inside his car early Sunday, DC Agenda reports. The car was parked near Bolling Air Force Base in southeast Washington.

Perkins lived with his mother about two miles from where he was found killed, and one of his neighbors told DC Agenda it was well known that Perkins was gay. A police official also confirmed that one of Perkins's family members said the victim was gay.

"We have no idea what the motive is," Lt. Paul Wingate told the DC Agenda, adding that they have no evidence so far to indicate the murder is a hate crime.
