On the evening of April 7, 2020, 21-year-old Brea Moon of District Heights, Maryland, was fatally shot in Southeast Washington, D.C. Moon was a passenger in a gray sedan that pulled into a BP station at 4101 Alabama Avenue SE shortly before 10:30 p.m. A stolen white vehicle was also at the station; when the gray sedan left, the white vehicle followed and then pulled alongside. Multiple gunshots were fired into the gray sedan in the 3900 block of Alabama Avenue SE, and one bullet struck Moon.

First responders from the Prince George’s County Police Department found Moon inside the vehicle on Suitland Road in Maryland and transported her to a hospital, where she died. The Metropolitan Police Department’s Homicide Branch led the investigation and identified several suspects. In June 2020, a 16-year-old, Michael Mason, and 19-year-old Daquan (Dajuan) Jones were arrested; a third person, Charles Hill, was later charged in connection with the case.

The circumstances include a follow and an apparent targeted drive-by shooting; who saw the vehicles that night or has information about the stolen white car is still important to the investigation. If anyone knew Brea or saw activity at the BP station or along Alabama Avenue that evening, please come forward with information.
