Anthony Riley, 20, was shot and killed on the night of July 16, 2020, in the 100 block of Walnut Street NW. Officers found Riley and another adult male inside a vehicle at Eastern Avenue and Walnut Street; both had gunshot wounds and were taken to a hospital. Riley died of a gunshot wound to the chest, while the other man survived. Investigators concluded the shooting caused Riley’s vehicle to accelerate and crash, and surveillance footage showed two people walking toward and later leaving the scene.

The surviving victim, who had been in business with Riley selling clothing, told police two people got into their vehicle and demanded money. When the men said they had none, the suspects opened fire and jumped from the moving vehicle just before it crashed. Detectives later identified an Instagram call from Riley’s phone to 16-year-old Quincy Tate Johnson of Takoma Park shortly before the shooting. On August 20, 2020, Johnson was arrested and charged as an adult with first-degree murder while armed; a judge found enough evidence for the case to go to trial.

Did anyone in the area see the vehicle or the two people captured on surveillance that night, or have information about that Instagram call?
