"District police said in a tweet that the shooting occurred around [b]5:30 p.m[/b]. on 10th & H Street NE, near Ben’s Chili Bowl."

Ever get takeout or eat at Ben's Chili Bowl?  Dinner time! Does it get scrubbed from the list?  And the victim is young, physically fit certainly but no match for DC teen criminals.  Honestly, how did teenage guys not recognize him?  I'm not a huge football fan yet when I see these guys going about normal person stuff even I get the know them from somewhere...

Unconfirmed reports say he was NOT in a flashy car. But I'm guessing it was at least a somewhat nice new vehicle, and you can tell when a young man has money from his fashion, designer sneakers, and likely wears a nice watch. I doubt the kids knew he was the new starting running back of the Commanders.[/quote]

If he was at Ben's or out somewhere else on H st, I wonder if they targeted him/his car.  Carjacking at 5:30 PM on H street is really something else. [/quote]

If he was actually in a normal lower key car, safe bet he was wearing a flashy watch or chain and/or distinct high-end fashion that made him stand out. Or flashed a fat wad of cash when he paid for food. Because these cowardly teen criminals don't carjack a random in-shape 200lb Black guy, they tend to pick softer targets ex. elderly, female, a skinny white guy wearing flip flops.[/quote]

Way to blame the victim![/quote]
I would love for that person to tell us what appropriate cars we should drive and clothes and jewelry we should wear to avoid getting robbed. [/quote]
