Jasiya Ahmar Vaughn, a 21-year-old Black man from Woodbridge, Virginia, was fatally shot on the evening of October 2, 2025. The shooting took place shortly before 10:50 p.m. on a sidewalk outside the Alamo Drafthouse at Stonebridge at Potomac Town Center after an encounter with at least one other person escalated. Vaughn was struck multiple times and died at the scene despite first responders’ efforts. An 18-year-old man who was with Vaughn received a non-life-threatening graze wound to his lower body.

Authorities said the shooting did not appear random and that Vaughn was targeted. The suspect or suspects fled immediately after the gunfire. The Prince William County Police Department opened a homicide investigation that involved multiple law enforcement agencies and asked the public for information or witnesses.

On November 5, 2025, three men were arrested in connection with the killing: 23-year-old Shawki Saah Fofanah of Dumfries, 22-year-old George Kwasi Attakora of Stafford, and 25-year-old Musa Abraham Sesay of Dumfries. Fofanah faces charges including second-degree murder, malicious wounding, and two counts of using a firearm in the commission of a felony; Attakora is charged as a principal in the second degree, and Sesay is charged as an accessory before the fact. All three were being held in custody with court dates pending.

Did anyone see Vaughn or the people he encountered that night, or is there dashcam or surveillance footage from the Potomac Town Center area that could help investigators?
