Video that looks like something out of a movie shows two suspects open fire in Northeast D.C., killing a 29-year-old man and injuring three others. News4’s Jackie Bensen spoke with the victim’s mother and father.
Police are hoping someone can help them identify two people and a car that they say were involved in a fatal shooting in northeast D.C. Thursday.
The two gunmen can be seen on the video firing in the parking lot of a gas station in the 3400 block of 18th Street at about 7:40 p.m.
Officers found four men with gunshot wounds.
Jarvis Belle, 29, sustained life-threatening gunshots and was taken to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
The three other victims' injuries were not life-threatening.
"It made me very angry," Belle's mother, Lisa Belle, said of the surveillance video.
