In the pre-dawn hours of August 30, 2004, Kenneth Green, 23, and his friend Kiysha Hunter, 29, were sitting in a red car stopped at a traffic light at 33rd Place and South Dakota Avenue NE when gunfire erupted. Police arrived about 3:00 a.m.; Green was pronounced dead in the vehicle after being shot multiple times, and Hunter was taken to a hospital where she later died.

The two had spent the evening at the Crossroads Entertainment Complex and Restaurant in Bladensburg. The shooting occurred at an intersection with no nearby homes or businesses, and investigators found no immediate witnesses, no initial reports of gunfire, and no clear motive in either victim’s background. The Metropolitan Police Department’s Violent Crimes Branch investigated but the case went cold; MPD has offered a substantial reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction.

Does anyone who was in the Crossroads area that night or who remembers seeing a red car near 33rd Place and South Dakota Avenue have information to share with investigators?
