On the late afternoon of May 3, 2018, a drive-by shooting on the 3700 block of 1st Street SE in Washington, D.C., left two people dead. A white 4-door Hyundai Accent pulled up and a gunman fired into a rideshare vehicle. Mecca India Tyshea Gravette, 23, was pronounced dead at the scene; 25-year-old Sukarno Turner was taken to a hospital and later died of his injuries.

Investigators tied the killings to a broader conflict between a Wahler Place-affiliated street crew and a rival Trenton Park group. Court papers in a separate corruption indictment named Sukarno Turner as a close associate of Derek B. Fats Turner; that case also charged MPD civilian clerk Ronnika Jennings with leaking confidential information to gang members. The specific shooter has not been publicly identified; police released surveillance of the suspect vehicle and described the shooter as a Black male wearing a white t-shirt, and offered up to a $25,000 reward.

If anyone knew Sukarno Turner or Mecca Gravette, or has information about the white Hyundai Accent or the shooting, please share details with investigators.
