A 17-year-old Northeast Washington resident was fatally shot this morning outside a school that is under construction in Northeast Washington, police said.

Police identified the youth as Devaun Drayton, of the 1900 block of M Street Northeast. He was shot at least once in the upper body, they said, and found about 10:50 a.m. in the rear parking lot of Phelps Vocational School, a facility that is under construction in the 700 block of 26th Street NE.

He was transported to the Washington Hospital Center, where he was pronounced dead at 11:40 a.m. Police had no immediate suspects or motives.

Authorities said they had no indication that the youth attended any of the D.C. public schools in the area. Security was tightened at those buildings as a precaution, police said.
