Tobias Dorzon Recounts 2024 Shooting, Sets TV Return as Suspect’s Trial Nears

He offers a first detailed account of his recovery ahead of a December trial.

Overview

  • Dorzon was shot 11 times on Nov. 5, 2024, outside his Hyattsville, Md., home during a robbery in which his girlfriend, Crystal Swan, was also wounded, and both survived.
  • The attackers took an Audemars Piguet watch, a diamond necklace, and other items valued at about $100,000, with five suspects fleeing in a stolen car, according to charging documents.
  • Authorities charged 21-year-old Devin Demetrius Spivey with 18 counts including attempted first- and second-degree murder, first-degree assault, armed robbery, and stalking, and he has pleaded not guilty.
  • Spivey’s attorney says the investigation continues with other suspects still at large, and the trial is scheduled to begin Dec. 5.
  • After multiple surgeries and two months in the hospital, Dorzon continues physical therapy, credits support from Guy Fieri, and returns to TV on Nov. 5 in Tournament of Champions: All-Star Christmas.
