A midday shooting in Southeast Washington ended in the death of 22-year-old Devante Moody on April 30, 2019. Officers responded to the 4400 block of G Street Southeast at about 1:40 p.m. and found Moody with a gunshot wound. Emergency medical services took him to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

The Homicide Branch investigated for months. On November 27, 2019, detectives arrested 18-year-old Antwuan Roach of Southwest, D.C., charging him with Second Degree Murder while Armed in connection with Moody’s death. The arrest followed nearly seven months of investigation and was described as a breakthrough in the case.

Anyone who knew Devante, his activities that afternoon, or who has information about the shooting is asked to come forward.
