A 43-year-old man has been detained and charged in connection with the fatal shooting of an 18-year-old in Northwest D.C. earlier this year, police said.
Members of the Capital Area Regional Fugitive Task Force captured Alan Maybin of Northwest D.C. on Monday, according to the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD).
Maybin was detained in response to a D.C. A Superior Court warrant was issued, and he was charged with first-degree murder while armed and with premeditation.
The shooting occurred on July 28 at around 10:38 p.m. in the unit block of New York Avenue NW.
Officers went to reports of gunshots and discovered a guy with gunshot wounds, according to police. Officials declared the victim, 18-year-old Darron Venable of Southeast D.C., dead on the scene.
More than three months after the shooting, the inquiry resulted in Maybin’s arrest.
Anyone with information on the crime should contact police at 202-727-9099 or text the department’s tip line at 50411. The MPD is offering a $25,000 prize for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of persons responsible for homicides in the District.
