Late on the night of July 5, 2025, 23-year-old Zarie Williams of Northwest Washington, D.C. was fatally shot in the 100 block of T Street, Northeast in the Eckington neighborhood. Officers from the Fifth District found Ms. Williams with multiple gunshot wounds; D.C. Fire and Emergency Medical Services performed life-saving measures but she was pronounced dead at the scene.

Shortly after the shooting, an adult male arrived at a local hospital with a non-life-threatening gunshot wound; detectives linked his injury to the same incident. The Metropolitan Police Department says the investigation into the double shooting and homicide is active, has offered a substantial reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction, and has made no arrests or suspect identifications public.
