On the afternoon of September 1, 2016, 17-year-old Kevin Anthony Jackson II was shot in the head in the 1900 block of 16th Street SE in the Anacostia neighborhood of Southeast Washington, D.C. Emergency crews arrived after reports of gunfire around 2:15 p.m.; Jackson was taken to a nearby hospital and died shortly after arrival. He had been a student at Anacostia High School and was remembered by a former teacher as respectful, loving, and someone who dreamed of becoming a comedian.

A second man, a pizza delivery driver, was struck in the lower body about a block away and taken to a hospital in critical but stable condition; police described him as an apparent innocent bystander. Investigators recovered four shell casings at the scene and said the shooting followed a dispute between rival neighborhood crews. A 15-year-old male was arrested at a school a little over a week later and charged with first-degree murder while armed; the youth initially denied being present but later admitted to firing a gun. The case proceeded in juvenile court with the possibility of transfer to adult court.

Did anyone in the community witness the argument or the shooting, or have information about the moments before it occurred?
