On the afternoon of October 20, 2018, 19-year-old Antonio Dixon was shot multiple times inside a building in the 900 block of 5th Street SE, Washington, D.C. He managed to run around the corner but collapsed in the 400 block of I Street SE; officers responding to a call about an unconscious person at about 3:53 p.m. found him unresponsive and he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Dixon planned to enlist in the Marines after completing a military-style GED program, the Capital Guardian Youth Challenge Academy. His grandmother, Crystal Dixon, said he loved fighter jets and left behind two younger siblings; the family described him as someone who wanted to make something of his life and expressed exhaustion with the violence that took him.

In November 2018 authorities arrested 23-year-old Jerome Myles on charges including second-degree murder while armed, carrying a pistol without a license, and possessing a firearm during a crime of violence. Myles was later released into a supervision program, and in December 2021 he pleaded guilty to carrying a pistol without a license after the murder charge was dropped; in April 2022 he received a fully suspended 20-month sentence with 15 months probation, 100 hours of community service, and a requirement to register as a gun offender. Does anyone have memories of Antonio or information about the shooting that could shed light on what happened that day?
