On the early morning of August 5, 2012, Simon Sebastian Anderson, a 37-year-old African-American man, was found in the 3500 block of Georgia Avenue NW in Park View suffering multiple gunshot wounds. Officers arrived after reports of shots fired shortly after 3 a.m.; Anderson was pronounced dead at the scene and the death was classified as a homicide.

The Metropolitan Police Department’s Homicide Branch issued a reward flyer dated August 6, 2012, offering up to $25,000 for information leading to an arrest and conviction and placed the case on its roster of 2012 major unsolved homicides. Contemporary coverage noted the killing as one of several shootings that weekend in the District. No suspect or arrest is publicly identified in connection with the killing, and the investigation remains listed as open and unresolved.

If anyone knew Simon, saw activity on Georgia Avenue around 3 a.m. that night, or has information that could help, please share what is known with investigators.
