“The preliminary investigation indicates that both victims were exiting an event at the Capitol #Jewish Museum located in the 500 block of Third Street Northwest when the #shooting occurred,” Smith said. “We believe the shooting was committed by a single suspect who is now in custody. Prior to the shooting, the suspect was observed pacing back and forth outside of the museum.”
Smith said that the suspect “approached a group of four people, produced a #handgun and opened fire striking both of our decedents.”
After the shooting, Smith said that the suspect then entered the museum and was detained by event security.
The #suspect chanted “Free Free #Palestine” while in custody, Smith said."
