Alexander Mosby was 39 when he was shot just before 2 a.m. on Saturday, May 26, 2018, in the 2200 block of Savannah Terrace SE in Washington, D.C. He was taken to a hospital and died of his wounds. Mosby was a husband, father and grandfather, a local entrepreneur known for custom T-shirt designs and co-ownership of the clothing boutique District Culture, which he was converting into a lounge. He also worked for the Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission and was active in domestic violence, youth advocacy and first-time homebuyer counseling in his Anacostia neighborhood, where he had chosen to buy a home rather than move away.

Court testimony says Mosby was unarmed and trying to pull a friend away from a dispute when shots were fired from a gray Infiniti SUV; nine shots were reported and only Mosby was struck. Authorities arrested 25-year-old Tywan Porter nearly two weeks after the shooting; Porter was charged in connection with the killing. Did anyone in the neighborhood see or hear anything that night that could add detail to what happened?
