Antonio Bassett, 35, was shot to death inside an apartment on the 3900 block of Pennsylvania Avenue SE in Washington, D.C., in the early morning of May 22, 2017. Emergency responders found him fatally wounded at about 4:45 a.m. after neighbors or the apartment’s occupant heard gunfire and discovered him where he had been sleeping.

A man named Chad Hawthorne, 36, later went to a police station to discuss the shooting and at first was not detained. He told investigators that an unknown individual had entered with Bassett and after an argument that stranger shot Bassett several times and fled. Detectives found inconsistencies in Hawthorne’s account, and interviews revealed tensions between the two men. The day before the killing Hawthorne had been upset about items taken from his car; a witness said Bassett had been seen with a key to that car weeks earlier and might have intended to use it to buy drugs.

The apartment owner reported seeing someone resembling Hawthorne running from the scene after the shots. Based on conflicting statements and witness accounts, police arrested Chad E. Hawthorne and charged him with second-degree murder while armed in connection with Bassett’s death. Does anyone have information about Bassett’s movements in the days before May 22, 2017?
