Joseph Hall, 38, was found inside his Akron residence in the 1300 block of Brandon Avenue on November 30, 2022, and pronounced dead at 7:25 p.m. after suffering a gunshot wound to the chest. Police say the investigation uncovered a heated argument that night between Hall and his girlfriend, Suzanne Thomas, about a car.

Detectives early on identified Suzanne Thomas, 33, as a suspect and an arrest warrant was issued charging her with aggravated murder. Separately, authorities arrested Darrell Lee Antwan Buchanan on December 13, 2022, identifying him as the shooter; he has been held in the Summit County jail since that arrest. The investigation is ongoing and police are seeking information from anyone who may have relevant details.

If anyone knew Joseph, Suzanne, or has information about the events that night, please contact the Akron Police Department.
