On July 23, 2018, 17-year-old Daquan Munson was killed in a triple shooting at a residence on the 1300 block of West Dobbs Street in Tyler, Texas. Munson, who was African American, was found inside the home with his mother, Ladidre Blevins, and 51-year-old Charlie Verdell. Both Munson and Verdell died of their injuries; Blevins was hospitalized and survived.

Investigators say the shooting followed an altercation involving Blevins’ ex-boyfriend, Tony Waters. An arrest warrant affidavit states Blevins called police and identified Waters as the shooter. A teenage family member who witnessed the incident told police he heard Verdell and Blevins arguing with Waters, then heard gunshots; Munson ran into the living room to help and was assaulted and shot at least twice. A neighbor reported hearing gunshots and seeing a black male in black clothing running from the scene.

Waters was arrested the next day in Longview with help from the U.S. Marshal’s Service and charged with capital murder, held on $1 million bond. Does anyone have information about Munson, Verdell, or the events that evening that could help investigators?
