Nineteen-year-old Andre Baker was fatally shot in the early morning hours of August 5, 2023, after a night out in the U Street neighborhood of Washington, D.C. He and two friends were waiting at a bus stop in the 1200 block of U Street Northwest when, at about 5:01 a.m., a man approached and opened fire. Baker was struck multiple times in the head and torso and was pronounced dead after emergency responders arrived; one friend suffered a grazing wound.

Police say a 20-year-old man from Gwynn Oak, Maryland, fled on foot but was seen running by nearby patrol officers and was captured after a short chase at 12th and T Streets Northwest. A 40 caliber Glock 22 handgun with an extended magazine was recovered from him, and several surveillance cameras in the area recorded the incident.

Does anyone who was in the U Street area that morning or who knew Andre have information that could shed light on what happened?
