Kassius-Khon Glay was 16 when he was shot and killed in Washington, D.C., on the late morning of Friday, May 28, 2021. Gunfire was reported about 11:50 a.m. in the 3500 block of Warder Street NW. Shortly afterward a vehicle crashed in the 600 block of Upshur Street NW, near Grant Circle Park; officers found Kassius-Khon inside the car with fatal gunshot wounds. An adult male who had been with him suffered non-life-threatening injuries and was taken to a hospital.

Kassius-Khon was a high school student described by family as intelligent, kind, and a role model to his younger siblings; he had recently received a report card with all A’s and one B and hoped to study zoology. His parents spoke about their fear for their son’s safety and the family held a vigil where friends and relatives released balloons in his memory.
