Street shrine in honor of Anthony Richardson | 3900 block of South Capitol Street SW DC

From a DC Police report: Detectives from the Metropolitan Police Department’s Homicide Branch are investigating a homicide that occurred on Wednesday, January 11, 2023, in the 3900 block of South Capitol Street SW, Washington, DC. At approximately 9:39 pm, members of the Seventh District responded to the listed location for the report of a shooting. Upon arrival, the members located two adult male victims suffering from apparent gunshot wounds. DC Fire and Emergency Medical Services responded to the scene and transported both victims to area hospitals. After all life-saving efforts failed, one of the victims was pronounced dead. The decedent has been identified as 23-year-old Anthony Richardson, of Southeast, DC. 

May he rest in eternal peace.

There are two other streets shrines to homicide victims within a few yards of this one. May the community know justice and be spared further grief.
