On the night of Friday, October 20, 2017, a burst of gunfire in the 1600 block of U Street SE in Washington, D.C., left 30-year-old Shawntese Murphy of Suitland, Maryland, dead. Officers arrived about 10:53 p.m. and found Murphy unconscious and unresponsive with a gunshot wound; DC Fire and Emergency Medical Services pronounced her dead at the scene. An adult male was also shot in the same incident and taken to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

The Metropolitan Police Department opened a homicide investigation and publicly sought help from anyone with information. A reward of up to $25,000 was offered for tips leading to an arrest and conviction.

Does anyone have information about Shawntese Murphy or the events on U Street that night?
