Arrest in fatal shooting of young graduate, but still few answers
…
Tyree Irving, 22, of Northeast, has been charged with first-degree murder while armed. He has been ordered detained until a hearing March 12. His attorney did not respond to an interview request. Court documents say he was known on the street as “Wink” or “We.”
In addition to the murder case, Irving also was charged with assault with a dangerous weapon. Prosecutors say he opened fire at the same corner where Williams was shot — New York Avenue and North Capitol Street — about a month after the killing. Police said one bullet went through the window of Big Ben liquor store and another pierced the windshield of an Audi, wounding a fourth-grade math teacher who was stopped at a red light.

Irving spent a year in jail after being convicted of illegally possessing a firearm in 2015. While on supervised release in that case, court records show he was arrested in connection with burglaries at two District schools from which computers were taken. Authorities said they discovered a gun inside a stolen van used in those incidents.
He pleaded guilty to burglary in 2017 and was sentenced to two years in prison. He was released Nov. 27, 2018, seven weeks before Williams was killed. Court documents make it appear Williams was targeted and shot repeatedly even after he fell to the sidewalk in front of the Tyler House apartments.
