Landover, MD – The Prince George’s County Police Department and the U.S. Marshals Service are seeking the public’s help in locating a man wanted in connection with a 2020 fatal shooting in Landover.

Police are searching for Dayvon Gordon, 34, who is wanted in the killing of Andre Lamont Cox Jr., 22. Investigators obtained an arrest warrant for Gordon shortly after the shooting, but authorities say extensive efforts to locate him have been unsuccessful.

According to police, officers responded on Oct. 27, 2020, to the 3200 block of 75th Avenue after receiving reports of a shooting.
