NBC 4 Washington identified the victim as Jefferson Perez. According to the outlet, Perez was walking on a sidewalk near the school when he was shot by the occupants in a green car. After the incident, local schools, including neighboring MacFarland Middle School, were put on lockdown until the end of the school day, NBC 4 Washington reported. Perez’s death comes days after two other shootings in the D.C. area involved children this week.
On Sunday, 10-year-old Arianna Davis was shot while riding in a car with her family as they were driving home after a Mother’s Day celebration. Metropolitan Police said she was “accidentally hit in a barrage of gunfire.” Police then confirmed she had died on Wednesday, according to ABC News. On Monday, a 12-year-old girl was sleeping at her D.C. area home when a stray bullet went through the window of her room. She was shot in the leg and suffered non-life-threatening injuries. I can’t overstate how heartbreaking it is, how heartbroken I am right now, for our kids with what we see happening as a police agency in the city,” Kane said at the news conference. “But what I will tell you is that it just makes us more deliberate and intentional in our resolve to put our hands around what is happening with our kids.
