MAPLEWOOD, Minn. — The family of a 20 -year-old homicide victim hopes news of a reward in
the case will help lead to his killer.
Maplewood police say squads responded to a 911 call on Aug. 28 reporting a person down in
the roadway near Larpenteur Avenue East and McKnight Road. When officers arrived they
found 20 -year-old Devinn Madley laying in the street, dead from a gunshot wound.

"This was a senseless death and I need answers, want answers," Madley's father, Theryl Dugas,
told reporters Tuesday. "He worked he played video games, he was just getting into his way of
life as a young man."
Maplewood police Lt. Joe Steiner says there were at least two witnesses to the crime, and
investigators believe three suspects were somehow involved in Madley's death. While police
are actively following up on several leads, Steiner says no one is currently in custody in
connection with the fatal shooting.
Madley's family and Maplewood police met with reporters near a memorial for Madley Tuesday
morning to discuss a $7,000 reward being offered in the case, and share their hopes that
someone will step up with information that might lead to his killer.
"It's not right," said friend, Adriana Billugas. "Devinn did not deserve this out of everyone, he
was so innocent."
