Sejon Reed

Sejon Reed was a 22-year-old Black man from Fort Washington, Maryland, who was remembered as a “great kid. Warm and Loving.” On the evening of September 17, 2021, his life was cut short by gunfire in Prince George’s County. At approximately 9:30 p.m., police officers responded to a report of a shooting in a parking lot in the 4700 block of St. Barnabas Road in the Temple Hills/Marlow Heights area. They found Sejon outside, suffering from multiple gunshot wounds. He was rushed to a local hospital but was pronounced dead a short time later.

For nearly three years, the Prince George’s County Police Department’s Homicide Unit actively investigated the killing. Detectives worked to establish a motive and identify the person or people responsible for the shooting, while the community and Sejon's loved ones waited for answers and an arrest.

A major development in the case occurred in June 2024, when investigators identified and arrested a suspect. Police took 32-year-old Andre Moore of Temple Hills into custody. He was charged with first- and second-degree murder and other related charges for his alleged role in Sejon Reed’s death. Following his arrest, Moore was held at the Department of Corrections on a no-bond status.

The case against Andre Moore proceeded to trial, where he was convicted of first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder. As of an update in April 2026, Moore had been sentenced for the murder of Sejon Reed, bringing the case to a legal conclusion.
