On the evening of September 27, 2023, a shooting in the 2500 block of 14th Street Northeast in Brentwood left two men dead and three others wounded. At about 9:50 p.m., 41-year-old Nathaniel Limes of Richmond, Virginia, and 46-year-old James Cooper Jr. of Northeast, D.C., died of gunshot wounds and were pronounced dead at the scene. A third person was found at the scene with non-life-threatening gunshot injuries and taken to hospital; two more victims later arrived at area hospitals with non-life-threatening wounds.

The D.C. acting police chief characterized the incident as a crew-on-crew argument that escalated when firearms were introduced. Investigators from the Metropolitan Police Department’s Homicide Branch say three male suspects were seen fleeing in a gray SUV. No arrests have been announced and the case remains unsolved; a reward of up to $50,000 is being offered for information that leads to arrest and conviction.

Did anyone in the Brentwood area see a gray SUV or the three men who fled that night?
