In DC second degree murder includes homicide where the person committing it possesses "reckless indifference to an unjustifiably high risk to human life"
They do not necessarily need to intend to kill the person.
Is there a reason you think this wouldn't count?

From my understanding, the unjustifiably high risk is something like I decided to speed the wrong way on the highway. Involuntary manslaughter is where it is possible but not likely like I would think is this case.
