According to documents obtained by FOX 5 DC, Bennaugh called police around six hours after the shooting, which happened between 5:30 a.m. and 6 a.m.
He reportedly told them that his roommate “had come at him with knives,” the document said.
Bennaugh recounted to police that he fell asleep on the sofa and was woken up by Scott Hayes “making a lot of noise” in the kitchen. Scott Hayes then repeatedly asked Bennaugh where the remote was, but the suspect ignored him.

The suspect claims that he didn’t see that Scott Hayes was injured, so he assumed that none of the bullets hit him and went back to sleep.
Prince George’s County Police ask anyone with information about the case to contact its homicide unit at 301-516-2512.
