HERNDON, Va. – Police in Northern Virginia are searching for a suspect after a man was shot several times outside a shopping center in Herndon on Sunday night.
The shooting occurred just before 7:45 p.m. at the Worldgate Shopping Center, located off Centreville Road.
Herndon police say the victim was shot multiple times, including in the upper body, and was rushed to Reston Hospital. He is now reported to be in stable condition following surgery.
Authorities have identified 25-year-old Mohamed Abdalla as a suspect in the shooting. Police have released an image of Abdalla and are asking for the public’s help in locating him.
According to the department, one officer was patrolling the area when he heard multiple gunshots coming from the shopping center.
As the officer rushed to the scene, he saw a car speeding away from the area and attempted to follow the vehicle on the Dulles Toll Road. However, the officer lost sight of the car.
Meanwhile, other officers responded to the scene and found the victim suffering from multiple gunshot wounds. Several stores and restaurants in the area were open at the time, and many nearby residents and business owners were shocked by the crime.
Amit Patel, the owner of Uncle Jalapeno Mexican Grill and Bar, expressed his concern over the shooting in what is typically seen as a safe and busy area.
“Scary, this place is the hub of Herndon next to Dulles Airport,” Patel said. “It was strange that this happened last night.”
Witnesses who live nearby also voiced their concerns, with some noting the recent rise in crime in the area.
“It’s crazy to hear that. Hopefully, it never happens again,” said Ken Huang, a local resident. “It’s pretty sad that stuff like that is going on in my neighborhood,” added Jeyson Garcia. “The crime has been going up, and I just hope to see it change.”
As of now, police are still working to determine if the victim and suspect were acquainted or if the shooting was random.
Anyone with information on Mohamed Abdalla’s whereabouts is urged to contact the Herndon Police Department.

A manhunt is underway in Virginia for a suspect accused of killing a sheriff’s deputy while he was conducting a welfare check, law enforcement officials said.
Deputy Logan Utt was fatally shot after police received a request from a family member to do a welfare check at the location, the Carroll County Sheriff’s Office said.
A man at the home opened fire on the two deputies who responded to the location, according to the sheriff’s office. The deputies returned fire, the sheriff’s office said, and both were hit by gunfire. Utt was pronounced dead, while the second deputy was struck in his ballistic vest. That deputy is currently receiving medical evaluation and is reported to be in stable condition, officials said.
“Deputy Utt was a devoted husband, loving father, cherished family member, friend, and respected member of our law enforcement family. His service, courage, and dedication will not be forgotten,” the sheriff’s office said in a statement.
Utt joined the sheriff’s office in 2023, after serving in the military.
A search is underway for the suspect. He should be considered armed and extremely dangerous, law enforcement officials said.
“My office is closely monitoring this tragic incident,” Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger wrote on social media. “I encourage anyone with information on the suspect’s whereabouts to contact Virginia State Police. My thoughts are with the deputy’s family and the Carroll County Sheriff’s Office as we work through this awful situation.”
“I didn’t know I could go that fast,” Richard Delcid, the general manager of a Domino’s Pizza in Manassas, told WTOP.

‘I didn’t know I could go that fast’: Virginia pizza maker breaks record
A general manager of a Domino’s Pizza in Manassas, Virginia, won the chain’s “World’s Fastest Pizza Maker” competition this month.
Richard Delcid prepared a pepperoni pizza, mushroom pizza and cheese pizza for the oven in 31.22 seconds.
“I didn’t know I could go that fast,” Delcid told WTOP.
“Eight seconds better than the previous record,” Robert Donner, one of the owners of the Domino’s on Centreville Road, said.
The competitors at the May 13 Las Vegas event came from Domino’s locations around the world, and Donner said the competition is about more than speed.
“They’re judged by weight, they’re judged by portion, and they’re judged on whether they’re sellable to a customer,” Donner said.
When Delcid first started working for Domino’s in 2012, he was a teenager. He was much slower then, he joked.
As with anything, practice makes perfect.
“We record ourselves during practices,” Delcid said. “We dissect videos, we look at body movement, hand movement, everything.”
Delcid was not alone in Vegas. Donner, who is part owner of more than 30 Domino’s Pizza locations in Virginia and Maryland, brought dozens of employees to the event.
Coming in second at the competition was another member of Donner’s team.
Joe Burr, who is known as “Domino Joe,” is the local director of training, and calls himself the Dan Marino of the Domino’s World’s Fastest Pizza Maker competition.
“I’ve won third place a couple times, I’ve won second place like three or four times,” Burr said. “So I’m like always a bridesmaid, but never a bride.”
Don’t let Burr’s jokes fool you — he has known Delcid for a long time and is very proud of him.
“I like to say it’s not the sculptor, it’s the clay. Richard is the best clay,” Burr said.
Along with a championship belt and a trophy, Delcid’s record‑breaking performance earned him $5,000 from Domino’s Pizza corporate, and his local bosses kicked in another $5,000.
