On the late summer evening of June 28, 2024, in Minneapolis, 55-year-old Carl Maurice Woodard, a Black man, was shot and killed while sitting in his parked car on the 3500 block of Penn Avenue North shortly before 11 p.m. Officers responding to reports of gunfire found Woodard unresponsive with life-threatening gunshot wounds; he was pronounced dead at the scene. The Hennepin County Medical Examiner ruled the death a homicide from a gunshot wound to the torso.

Investigators reported Woodard’s vehicle had 13 bullet holes. A nearby fence with a hole produced 23 shell casings and appeared to be the point where shots were fired through the opening at the passenger side of the car. Surveillance footage showed a white Chevy Tahoe park near the scene, a man exit, walk between two houses to the fence, muzzle flashes, then return to the Tahoe and flee. Phone records and police inquiries identified 24-year-old Dameon Markese Collins of Bloomington as a person of interest; he was arrested and acknowledged driving the white Tahoe, wearing clothes matching the video and knowing about the hole in the fence, while saying he had been in the area to meet a girl.

Does anyone have information about the scene that evening or recall seeing a white Chevy Tahoe near Penn Avenue North around 11 p.m. on June 28, 2024?
