In a Rock Creek neighborhood apartment on the evening of Friday, March 6, 2026, a dispute involving several people ended in the shooting death of 35-year-old Kenmani Adkins. The Washington County Sheriff's Office received a 911 call shortly before 11 p.m. from a man at a residence in the 19000 block of Northwest Mahama Way, reporting that he had shot someone.
Upon their arrival just minutes later, deputies discovered Adkins inside the apartment.
Despite their immediate life-saving efforts, he was pronounced dead at the scene. The man who had called 911, identified as 26-year-old Stevon Bagnera, was detained by deputies at the apartment. Following an initial investigation by detectives, it was determined that Adkins had been shot following a disturbance.
Bagnera was subsequently arrested and taken to the Washington County Jail. He faces charges of second-degree murder and unlawful use of a weapon. As of the Monday following the incident, he was being held without bail. The investigation into the shooting is being conducted by the Washington County Major Crimes Team and remains active. Detectives have executed a search warrant at the apartment as they continue to gather information about the events that led to the fatal shooting. Authorities have asked anyone with information who has not yet spoken to investigators to come forward.
