HONORS STUDENT HEADED TO HARVARD GUNNED DOWN IN HOME INVASION
A 17-year-old Maryland honors student destined for
Harvard University was shot to death in her own bed after a home
invasion.
Police in Prince George’s County said that Amber Deanna Stanley was murdered when a male suspect kicked in the front door of her Kettering home around 10.30 p.m. on Wednesday and shot her multiple times in her bed.
Stanley’s 37-year-old sister and her small daughter, as well as a 17-year-old foster sister, were at home when the shooting happened but were not harmed during the attack and now police are canvasing the area for leads in their search for the shooter.
Neighbors remembered her as a quiet, dedicated student who had hoped to attend Harvard University. Stanley had just started her senior year at C.H. Flowers High School in Springdale, Md., where she was a member of the school’s science and technology program.
“This young girl had a bright future ahead of her with dreams to pursue and goals to reach,” read a statement from Prince George’s County Public Schools.
Police said a man entered the home, shot Stanley in her bedroom, and left the house without injuring anyone else. They’re asking anyone who saw anything to come forward. They have not released the identity of the victim.
Police were also at the house about two weeks ago. Neighbors said Stanley’s foster sister, who’s been living in the house for about six months, had reported that someone had tried to rape her.
