On the evening of August 1, 2024, at about 7:51 p.m., police responded to a shooting on Tuckerman Street in Northeast Washington, D.C., where 14-year-old David Bailey was found with gunshot wounds and pronounced dead at the scene. An adult male was also found nearby with non-life-threatening injuries and taken to a hospital.

Investigators say the shooting began after Bailey and friends entered a recreational center and, upon seeing 17-year-old Andre Chillous, tried to leave. Authorities allege Chillous followed them down a sidewalk and fired multiple shots, killing Bailey and wounding the other man. In October 2024 an arrest warrant charging Chillous with first-degree premeditated murder while armed was issued; he was later arrested on February 28, 2025, after turning 18. The defense has asserted self-defense, while a judge found probable cause to proceed on the murder charge, citing evidence that shots were fired as the victims were trying to get away.

Does anyone have information about David Bailey, the recreational center, or the events that night?
