An evening in Washington, D.C. ended with gunfire and the death of a teenager. On Friday, October 25, 2024, at about 5:47 p.m., shots were heard in the 3700 block of Georgia Avenue, Northwest. A Fourth District officer responding to the area went to the 800 block of Quincy Street, Northwest, and found 18-year-old Hazma Jamil Mubah-Wrotten of Clarksburg, Maryland, unconscious and not breathing with a gunshot wound. He was taken to a local hospital with life-threatening injuries and died there on Monday, October 28, 2024.

The Metropolitan Police Department opened a homicide investigation into the shooting. A development followed: on January 31, 2025, members of the Capitol Area Regional Fugitive Task Force arrested a 16-year-old juvenile male from Northwest, D.C., in Maryland under a D.C. Superior Court custody order; the juvenile was extradited the next day and charged with Second Degree Murder while Armed.

Does anyone have information about Hazma’s movements that evening or witnessed activity near Georgia Avenue and Quincy Street on October 25, 2024?
