A tragic incident unfolded in Washington, DC, last week when a former Trump administration official became a victim of a deadly string of carjackings. The DC Metropolitan Police Department has confirmed that Michael Gill, 56, who was shot during the ordeal, passed away on Saturday.
The incident occurred on Monday when Gill was sitting inside his parked vehicle at Mount Vernon Square. Police identified the suspect as 28-year-old Artell Cunningham, who forcefully entered the vehicle and shot Gill. Cunningham subsequently escaped on foot, only to approach another car occupied by 35-year-old Alberto Vasquez Jr. and a woman. Demanding their keys, Cunningham shot Vasquez, resulting in his untimely death. Immediately after these tragic events, Cunningham fled the scene in Vasquez's vehicle and proceeded to engage in two more carjacking incidents in Prince George’s County the following morning.
