On the evening of April 18, 2020, in the Shipley Terrace neighborhood of Washington, D.C., 28-year-old Toussaunt Strong was visiting his father’s home on 24th Street SE when he was chased and shot to death. Strong fled up the 3400 block of 24th Street SE; the pursuer pulled his hood over his head and fired, striking Strong multiple times. Surveillance captured the chase but not the shooting, and no eyewitnesses to the killing have been reported. Emergency services responded around 6:53 p.m.; Strong was found unconscious, taken to a hospital, and pronounced dead.

Investigators identified 25-year-old Ravel Mills of Temple Hills, Maryland, as a suspect and arrested him on a D.C. Superior Court warrant on May 4, 2020. Prosecutors relied on video surveillance, circumstantial evidence, and evidence of a motive in bringing charges of first-degree murder while armed. If anyone witnessed the chase that evening or has information about what led to this attack, please come forward.
