Devinn Madley, a 20-year-old Black man from Maplewood, Minnesota, was shot and killed on the night of August 28, 2021. He had been out celebrating a friend’s birthday and returned to his mother’s apartment before stepping out for a short walk to a nearby shop along Larpenteur Avenue East. Police say he was struck by gunfire near Larpenteur Avenue East and McKnight Road and found down on the roadway when officers arrived, prompting a homicide investigation.

Investigators said shots appeared to come from a silver or gray SUV, and Maplewood police suggested multiple people may have been involved. The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension assisted, a reward was offered, and Madley’s family repeatedly appealed for answers. Years later the killing was still described as unsolved with no arrest announced. If anyone saw or heard anything that night, please share information with the Maplewood police.
