Davonte Latreal Martin, a 27-year-old African American man, was shot multiple times on May 10, 2022, at a gas station on New Bern Avenue in Raleigh while attempting to get into his car. The shooting happened about 4:15 a.m.; Martin was taken to WakeMed and later died of his injuries. Investigators found multiple shell casings at the scene and placed evidence markers near them.

Police arrested 31-year-old Davon Kareen Allen and charged him with murder and possession of a firearm by a felon. Allen was held at the Wake County Detention Center. The shooting occurred at the same intersection where a 16-year-old Leesville High School student, Timothy Solas, had been shot in the head at a convenience store on April 12 and later died after a week in critical condition.

Anyone with information about Martin’s killing is asked to contact Raleigh Crime Stoppers; anonymous tips with cash rewards were being offered. Does anyone have information that could help investigators or knew Davonte?
