Gill was shot in the head while parked on K Street NW, waiting to pick up his wife. Witnesses, including Yolanda Douglas, described a distressing scene with Gill lying on the ground and a head wound. Gill’s wife, horrified, rushed out from a nearby building, and paramedics found a shell casing, confirming the gunshot.
The attacker’s identity remains undisclosed. Linked to multiple violent acts, including a fatal shooting, carjackings, and shooting at police, the spree ended in Maryland with the suspect being killed by police.
Post-shooting, the assailant attempted another carjacking on Third Street NE, failed, fatally shot Alberto Vasquez Jr., and stole his car. The same suspect was involved in subsequent crimes, including shooting at police vehicles.
