Ravond Simms, 24, was found suffering from gunshot wounds on a sidewalk in the 5200 block of Kenmont Road in Oxon Hill, Maryland, after officers responded to a shooting just after midnight on May 7, 2019. He was taken to a nearby hospital and pronounced dead.

Prince George’s County Police Homicide Unit investigated, canvassing the neighborhood. Early in the inquiry detectives said they did not believe the shooting was random and that Simms may have been targeted, but the motive remained unclear. In the days and weeks after the killing no suspects or arrests were publicly reported, and investigators appealed to the community for information.

As of late 2024 the case had not been publicly solved and no one had been publicly identified or apprehended in connection with the homicide. If anyone knew Ravond Simms, was in that Oxon Hill area on May 7, 2019, or has information that could help, please come forward to investigators.
