A Suitland family whose 8-month-old baby was shot to death Wednesday night may have been targeted because they witnessed a homicide in the District of Columbia Sunday night, sources close to the investigation said.

Anthony Maurice Savoy Jr. was in stable condition Thursday after being hit by two of the more than a dozen bullets that flew from an AK-47 assault rifle in the parking lot of an apartment complex on the 6200 block of Shadyside Avenue around 9 p.m. Wednesday, Prince George’s County police said. His son, Anthony III, was killed instantly by a bullet that struck his head.
