A voter database employee with the Democratic National Committee was shot and killed a block from his Washington, D.C. home, police said.

Seth Conrad Rich, 27, died early Sunday from multiple gunshot wounds sustained in an attack in Washington's Bloomingdale neighborhood. D.C. police have found little information to explain his death. At this time, there are no suspects, no motive and no witnesses in Rich's murder.

There is no immediate indication that robbery was a motive in the attack, police said, but it has not been ruled out as a possibility.

Joel Rich, the victim's father, told the Washington Post that police suggested the attack may have resulted from a robbery gone awry. Although nothing was stolen from the victim, Rich believes his son engaged his assailants before he was killed.
