Raymond Spencer left an online footprint before D.C. shooting

Police later identified Spencer from Fairfax, Va., as a person of interest in the shooting before announcing that a suspect was found dead that night in a nearby Van Ness apartment surrounded by firearms and ammunition.

Law enforcement officials with knowledge of the investigation said investigators examined social media posts attributed to a user named Raymond Spencer online, including 4chan, an online message board with millions of users. The user wrote, “Dear God please forgive me,” in one message, four minutes after shots were reported.

“We have identified a possible residence and are closely monitoring this location,” Fairfax County police said in a statement. She wrote of children in the community who sheltered in place for hours and residents who were escorted out of their homes by police. It was unclear early Saturday whether Spencer lived there, in addition to the home in Fairfax, or what his affiliation was at the AVA.The man shot himself, according to two individuals familiar with the matter who spoke on the condition of anonymity, citing the ongoing investigation.
