On the morning of June 28, 2015, 25-year-old Rodney Delonte Davis of Manassas, Virginia, was found unconscious from gunshot wounds on the unit block of Galveston Place in Southwest Washington, D.C. Emergency crews transported his body to the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner, and his death was ruled a homicide.

In the weeks after Davis’s killing, members of the Imperial Gangsta Bloods sought revenge and came to believe that 28-year-old Ryan Matthew Addison was responsible. That belief, later described as mistaken identity, led to Joshua Artis being authorized by the gang’s leader to carry out a retaliatory shooting. On August 11, 2015, Artis fatally shot Addison on the 200 block of Elmira Street, SW. Artis was arrested, pleaded guilty to second-degree murder, and was sentenced to 20 years in prison for Addison’s death.

There are no publicly reported arrests or identified suspects in the homicide of Rodney Davis. If anyone knew Rodney, saw activity in the Galveston Place area that morning, or has information about his killing, please share what is known.
