Andrew McPhatter, 28, was shot on March 1, 2017, while sitting in the driver’s seat of his green Buick Regal at Wheeler Road and Upsal Street SE in the Congress Heights area of Southeast Washington, D.C. A gunman fired eight rounds into the car; McPhatter was hit five times in the head and body and died on March 5, 2017. At the time he was shot he reportedly had a .40-caliber handgun tucked into his waistband.

The killing was tied to a prolonged feud between rival crews in the neighborhood that had produced numerous shootings and at least one earlier homicide. Investigators later connected the 10mm Glock used in McPhatter’s murder to the January 2017 killing of Devin Hall and several other shootings. Derek Fats Turner was identified as the shooter; two accomplices named in the case were Ronnika M. Jennings, a civilian police clerk alleged to have provided confidential information, and Duan M. Hill, implicated in a scheme to shift blame for the murder weapon.

Anyone who knew McPhatter or who has information about the feud, the events at Wheeler Road and Upsal Street, or the people involved is asked to come forward.
