Harold Blair III, 45, was killed in Washington, D.C., after being shot while driving near the Kenilworth Avenue Northeast exit ramp off D.C. Route 295 shortly before midnight on September 22, 2022. Reports say another vehicle pulled alongside Blair’s car and gunfire struck him at least once. He continued driving but crashed three blocks away in the 700 block of Kenilworth Terrace NE; first responders found an overturned vehicle with multiple bullet holes and pronounced Blair dead at the scene.

An autopsy attributed the death to a combination of a gunshot wound and blunt force trauma from the crash, and the Metropolitan Police Department has ruled the death a homicide. No suspects have been publicly identified and no arrests have been announced. Authorities are offering a reward of up to $25,000 for information leading to an arrest and conviction.
