Keenan Wynn Kearse, 38, was shot and killed during what police described as an attempted robbery at his apartment in the 4400 block of 23rd Parkway in the Temple Hills–Hillcrest Heights area of Prince George’s County, Maryland. The attack occurred on the evening of Saturday, April 7, 2007, when assailants knocked, were let inside, produced a firearm and demanded money; Kearse was pronounced dead at the scene.

Keenan, a Black man remembered for a happy disposition, had performed in childhood with his siblings in a family singing and tap-dancing group called Kearse, which won the D.C. Talent Search and played venues including the Carter Barron Amphitheater and Constitution Hall. He had grown up locally, moved back about two years before his death, and was part of a very close family; his sister described him as a good, happy guy.

Does anyone have information about Keenan’s case or recall details from that night that could help advance the investigation?
