Darryl Smith, 61, was shot and killed inside his sixth-floor Parc Riverside apartment in the Navy Yard on the afternoon of February 4, 2025. Smith, who was visually impaired and used a wheelchair, was found on the living room floor with multiple gunshot wounds to his head, neck, chest, arms, and back; a bullet hole was also found in the back of his wheelchair. He was taken to a nearby hospital and died about 90 minutes later.

The alleged shooter was identified as Smith’s 37-year-old son, De’Angelo Goldston, who was still at the scene when police arrived. Goldston was arrested and a handgun was recovered from a bedroom closet. Reports say the two had been arguing over accusations that Goldston had stolen money from his father; the child present during the shooting, Goldston’s 2-year-old, reportedly told police Daddy shot pop pop and reenacted the shooting. Goldston told detectives he had been high on PCP and had no memory of the shooting; he was charged with first-degree murder while armed and ordered detained.

Does anyone have information about Darryl Smith, his living situation at Parc Riverside, or the argument that led to this tragedy?
