In the predawn hours of August 16, 2025, Levon T. Washington, 26, was found in the street on the 300 block of Edmund Avenue in the Frogtown neighborhood of Saint Paul after gunfire was reported shortly after 4 a.m. Paramedics transported Washington to Regions Hospital, where he was pronounced dead; his death was recorded as the city’s eighth homicide that year.

Investigators initially sought public help and later arrested a suspect. Prosecutors charged 24-year-old Kireice Plez-Sachet Williams of New Brighton with second-degree murder. The criminal complaint states the shooting followed a brief argument about which side they were on, that Williams allegedly threatened to shoot Washington and then fired once, striking him in the neck. Multiple witnesses identified Williams fleeing the scene, and cell phone data placed his phone at the location; Williams was on pretrial release for two other felony cases and was prohibited from possessing firearms.

Does anyone have information about Washington, his movements that morning, or witnesses to the incident?
