On the evening of November 2, 2019, 25-year-old Anthony Martin was shot and killed on the 1100 block of Hazelwood Street behind the Roosevelt Homes complex in Saint Paul. The shooting occurred about 5:30 p.m.; Martin was found on a sidewalk with a gunshot wound to his chest and later died at Regions Hospital. A 24-year-old friend was critically wounded after being shot multiple times and crashing a Dodge Charger into parked cars.

Investigators recovered seven 9mm casings at the scene plus a plastic bag and a small scale. Surveillance video showed a man in a red sweater approach the Charger, speak with the occupants, then open fire; the surviving victim said the assailant had demanded someone named Lord and later identified the shooter from a photo lineup. Surveillance also captured the suspect’s Jeep, and police say that vehicle was later abandoned in Oakdale. On December 5, U.S. Marshals arrested 26-year-old Duane R. Whitson in Dallas; he was returned to Minnesota on charges of second-degree murder and second-degree attempted murder with bail set at $1 million.

Did anyone in Saint Paul see the red sweater or the Jeep that night, or have information about movements near Roosevelt Homes on November 2, 2019?
