Isaac Aull Jr. was a 30-year-old Black man from Northeast Washington, D.C., whose Friday afternoon on June 11, 2021, ended in fatal gunfire. Shortly after 1 p.m., officers responded to shots on the 1600 block of Franklin Street NE and found Aull on the sidewalk with multiple gunshot wounds; he showed no signs of life and was later pronounced a homicide by gunfire. Early reports said police searched for two suspects, one in a white T-shirt and one in a white sweater, and a gray Cadillac Escalade was seen leaving the scene.

Family and friends remember Aull by the nicknames Ike and Lil Ike, describing him as loving and energetic, a provider who worked in roofing, maintenance, and environmental jobs. He left behind a child and a grieving family. Detectives arrested a man from Northeast D.C. on June 24, 2021, and charging documents and law enforcement described surveillance video, social media footage, witness statements, and dashcam material placing him at the scene; a grand jury later indicted him on first-degree murder while armed and related weapons counts. The defendant rejected a later plea offer and awaited trial, leaving Aull’s family to relive the killing through ongoing court proceedings.
