Detectives determined Trott-McLean, 43, of Mount Vernon saw Wims in a vehicle with two other occupants on St Gregorys Lane. Trott exited a silver Nissan Sentra with Maryland registration 2ET4005 and shot Wims multiple times, according to police.

Detectives obtained warrants for Trott-McLean for second-degree murder among other charges and he has been wanted ever since. Police say they have gotten close to capturing him, but he continues to evade police.

"We know that Trott-Mclean knows that he is wanted. We know that he's still local and we know that he is playing games with the Fairfax County Police Department," says Davis.

Fairfax County Police say they've partnered with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives which contributed $5,000 towards the reward.

Detectives are asking anyone with information on Trott-Mclean’s whereabouts to call 703-246-7800. If you see Trott, please call 911 immediately.
