Devonte Speight, 26, was fatally shot during an attempted theft of his dirt bike on April 29, 2020, in the 1800 block of Maryland Avenue NE in the Carver-Langston neighborhood of Washington, D.C. Witnesses said suspects ordered him to stop and that when he appeared to ride away, one of the individuals fired three times. Speight, a Northwest Washington resident, was struck by gunfire and later died at a hospital.

Police arrested three people the same day: 24-year-old Derrick Kearney of Southeast D.C., 24-year-old Daquan Anglin of Laurel, Maryland, and a 16-year-old male from Southeast D.C., who was charged as a juvenile. Court papers say the suspects had been driving in a stolen Jeep Cherokee looking for a dirt bike to steal; after the shooting they fled but were located by a D.C. Police vehicle and taken into custody following a pursuit that ended near the Maryland line. A fourth suspect, a 15-year-old male from Northeast D.C., was arrested on May 28, 2020, and charged as well.

Does anyone have information about Speight, his dirt bike, or the area around Maryland Avenue NE that could shed light on what happened?
