A man was fatally shot in a vehicle on Interstate 295 overnight, prompting police to close the highway for about three hours while they searched for evidence. 

Police say the victim was shot at least once in the chest shortly after midnight. The victim's name hasn't been released, but police say he was in his 20s and apparently lived in southeast Washington.
 
Police say the man was a passenger in the back seat of the car. 

D.C. police Lieutenant Stuart Emerman says police are investigating whether the car was moving or pulled to the side of the highway when the shooting occurred. Police also are trying to determine where the shot was fired.
