Noah Green, the man who killed a Capitol Police officer Friday, played football at Alleghany High School

He was also a star track athlete

ROANOKE, Va. – The man responsible for the death of Capitol Police officer William “Billy” Evans in Washington, D.C. on Friday has ties to Southwest Virginia.

10 News has learned that Noah Green, 25, was from Covington, graduated from Alleghany High School in 2014 and later played football at Christopher Newport University, in Newport News.

He graduated from CNU in the spring of 2019 with a degree in finance.

While in high school in addition to playing football, he also ran track.

On the football field, he played both running back and defensive back, earning All-District, All-Conference, and team MVP honors in 2013, according to his biography on CNU’s website.

On the track, he also earned All-District and All-Conference honors in two events.

10 News reached out to Alleghany County Public Schools for a statement and received the following:

Good evening.

We are aware of the news reports from Washington, DC, today. Our condolences go out to all those affected.

Kim Halterman, Superintendent Alleghany County Public Schools

Before his Facebook page was removed, Heavy.com took screenshots of some posts made in the past few weeks.

The New York Times confirmed with two law enforcement officers that the Facebook page was indeed Green’s.

In one post, Noah referred to himself as Noah X.

Another post was of his Nation of Islam Certificate of Completion for Saviours’ Day Gift 2021. The certificate was presented to Noah X in Norfolk, Virginia, for his gift of $1,085.

Nation of Islam has been classified as a “designated hate group” by the Southern Poverty Law Center due to what the SPLC calls “the deeply racist, antisemitic and anti-LGBT rhetoric of its leaders.”

Noah’s CNU biography mentioned that the person in history he’d most like to visit is Malcom X.

Robert Contee, acting chief of the D.C. Metropolitan Police Department, said that his department would take over the investigation. “It does not appear to be terrorism-related,” Contee said.”

Below is part of one of Green’s Facebook posts from March 17.

I haven’t had much to lean on the past few months, I’ve been faced with fear, hunger, loss of wealth, and diminution of fruit. My faith is one of the only things that has been able to carry me through these times and my faith is centered on the belief of the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan as Jesus, the Messiah, the final divine reminder in our midst. I consider him my spiritual father. Without his guidance, his word, and his teachings that I’ve picked up on along the way, I would’ve been unable to continue. So, I wanted to give a personal testimony for the man whose accomplished such a great mission for the liberation of us all under the teachings of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad, brought forth by Allah, in the person of Master Fard Muhammad.

Below is the complete text of another one of Green’s posts from March 17.

In addition to my last post... I encourage everyone to study Revelations, study the signs of end times, study who the beast is, study who the anti-Christ is, study who the false prophet is, and study the created images during those times.

The Minister is here to save me and the rest of humanity, even if it means facing death. Be willing to deny yourself and follow him, pick up your cross. The Honorable Elijah Muhammad (his teacher, the exalted Christ) is alive in power (I bear witness). Study the Minister, watch his lectures, study Elijah Muhammad, study the mother wheel (which is present here in America [I bear witness again]). We have a little time.

Peace.

Noah X
