Noelle Wilson, 31, was killed by gunfire in the early hours of Sunday, October 11, 2020, in the 2300 block of Green Street Southeast in Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Police officers arrived after gunshots were reported at about 2:54 a.m.; D.C. Fire and EMS found her with multiple gunshot wounds and she was later pronounced dead at the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner.
Friends and family described Wilson as a vibrant dancer and teacher whose death left loved ones in shock. They held a vigil and her mother decorated a Justice tree at the grave during the holidays as a tribute. The Metropolitan Police Department had offered up to a $25,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction.
On June 9, 2022, homicide detectives arrested 29-year-old Kavon Jackson of Northwest, D.C., on an arrest warrant charging him with first-degree murder while armed-felony murder in connection with Wilson’s shooting. The U.S. Attorney’s Office later dropped charges against Jackson on January 19, 2023, and the case remains unresolved.
If anyone knew Noelle, saw activity in that Green Street area the morning of October 11, 2020, or has information about her killing, please come forward.
