Very sad. I agree that this is going to be a bigger story. Will be interesting to see who is arrested/charged?

Apparently the family is telling friends/family to not talk to anyone unless they identify themselves as MPD. They are concerned that private investigators for the assailants will be reaching out and trying to dig up dirt on the victim. The MPD already has identified the suspects.

This is from the local police listserv:

"The First District is currently investigating an assault that occurred at approximately 3:30 am in the 100 block of K Street SE. The complainant got into a dispute with a group of individuals, ultimately leading to the complainant being assaulted. Anyone that may have seen anything or may have any information about this case please contact the First District Detectives Office at 202-299-2025 or the Command Information Center at 202-727-9099 and reference case # 19083798. Thank you all.”

“Some additional information: Suspect lookout is for a white male, 20-26 years old, dressed in a cream colored jacket or sweater."

3:30am? the post article says 11:30pm.

That whole neighborhood is full of large sons wearing cream colored sweaters.

Initial police look out’s are not always accurate. I believe that was issued the next morning.

Then I urge the police to start knocking on doors and pulling over any cars with a man behind the wheel who fits the description.

In fact, I insist. The outrage from the Capitol Hill NIMBYs will be hilarious!

Funny how the usual cries of “thug” and death penalty haven’t permeated this thread. We’ve pretty much been able to have a calm and thoughtful conversation because the suspect was quickly identified as white and well-dressed. Imagine if we could be so civil whenever we talk about crime.

Are restaurants and bars still open at 3:30 in the District?

[Anonymous]

Why are some outlets using altercation and others saying fight?

This is just so sad. I am crying reading his CaringBridges updates.

Please keep us updated with news of the investigation.

Glad the family is getting the word out there. Thank you to them for their organ donation.

Altercations are what white people have.

For black people, they call it fighting.
