Daquan Hooks, 38, was found with a head injury in the 1900 block of 13th Street SE in Washington, D.C., after police responded to a call at about 4:45 a.m. on March 23, 2017. He was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead; an autopsy determined the cause of death was a gunshot wound to the base of his head and the death was ruled a homicide.

More than a year later, in August 2018, authorities arrested 47-year-old Cedric Alexander of Greenbelt, Maryland, also known as Tony White, on a D.C. Superior Court warrant and charged him with first-degree murder while armed, armed robbery and multiple firearm offenses. Court documents say nearby surveillance video showed a man exiting Hooks’s truck shortly after the shooting. A family member testified that Hooks had planned to meet him that morning near a methadone clinic and later saw a group gathered around a body that he recognized as Hooks.

The case ended with an acquittal for Cedric Alexander. Does anyone have information about Hooks’s movements that morning or the area around 13th Street SE?
