Man charged, another sought, in home invasion shooting

A 20-year-old Silver Spring man who allegedly invaded a Silver Spring home last week has been charged with shooting a man there.

George Monsour is one of two men that Montgomery County police said chased a 24-year-old woman into her home and then proceeded to attack three male residents — ages 21, 21, and 24 — once inside. The woman was able to escape harm by retreating to her bedroom.

Police say Monsour shot the 24-year-old male resident in the arm as the resident fought with Monsour’s counterpart.

The other culprit is described as Hispanic, between 18 and 20 years old, about 5-foot-9 with a thin build.

Anyone with information on the case should call 240-773-5100.
