On July 29, Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) officers arrested the third of four suspects in the death of an 11-year-old boy.
Carlo General, a 22-year-old resident of Oxon Hill, Md.,was arrested for first-degree murder while armed for his alleged role in the shooting of Davon McNeal on July 4 on the 1400 block of Cedar Street, SE. DC Police do not think that McNeal or anyone in his family was a target.
Earlier this month, DC Superior Court Judge Gerald Fisher issued a bench warrant for General because he failed to show up to a July 15 hearing for pretrial release violation. General was released under the High Intensity Supervision Program (HISP) in March 3 for carrying a pistol without a license, possession of an unregistered firearm and unlawful possession of ammunition charges from a 2019 case.
A notice of noncompliance was then filed on March 12, according to DC Courts.
Police are still searching for Marcel Gordon, a 25-year-old resident of Southeast, DC. He is also wanted for first-degree murder while armed in connection to the Independence Day shooting.
The department along with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) Washington Field Division and the FBI Washington Field Office is offering a reward of up to $55,000 for information which leads to the arrest and conviction of the suspects in this case.
On top of that, the U.S. Marshals Capital Area Regional Task Force has offered up to $10,000 for each suspect for information leading to their arrest.
Anyone with information about this case is asked to call the police at 202-727-9099. Anonymous information may be submitted to the department’s Text Tip Line – 50411.
