Former Trump administration official Mike Gill was in critical condition on Tuesday after being shot during a carjacking in Washington, DC. Gill was on his way to pick up his wife when he was shot on K Street NW in the evening at approximately 5:45 pm on Monday.

Gill was inside the car when he was shot, and though he managed to exit the vehicle, he collapsed shortly thereafter. He is the father of three. Gill was the COO of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission during the Trump White House.


"We can confirm that Mike Gill was the victim of a shooting at the 900 block of K Street Northwest on Monday evening and is in critical condition," a spokesperson for the family said. "Out of respect for the family, we have nothing additional to add at this time."

Ok ... my question is -- carjacking as in a random carjacking or was he a definite target?  If he was a target then a big why as to why did someone or people want him eliminated??
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Carjackings are so commonplace in D.C., I doubt the perp(s) knew who he was.

Ditto. It would be nice to visit some of the big cities, see the sights, explore the restaurants, etc., but I just don't feel like braving the thugs and illegals right now.

Sounds deliberate and not just a random target.

Hard to say

It is Washington DC and car jackings are up in pretty much every major city

No one is safe. And this is a 100% Democrat Party caused problem

@mountaineer

Truth to tell,DC was "dangerous after dark" at least as far back as the early  60's,when I would go there occasionally.

Was probably dangerous a long time before that.

Father of three and former Trump administration official Mike Gill has died on Saturday, only days after he was shot during a carjacking in Washington, DC. Gill was shot inside his car but was able to exit the vehicle before collapsing .

His wife issued a statement saying "It is with profound sadness that I wish to inform the community of the passing of my husband, Mike Gill. His sudden departure has left a void in our lives that can never be filled. In this time of grief, we are grateful for the outpouring of love and support from family, friends, and the community, and extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who has reached out to offer condolences and assistance.

"Mike was not only a devoted husband and father but also a cherished son, brother, and friend. Over the course of his remarkable life, Mike brought people together and made them feel included, supported, and loved. His heart was evident in everything he did, as demonstrated by his mentorship and deep friendships with those who worked with him professionally.

DC carjacking suspect who shot Trump official and others in 11-hour crime spree had previous felony charges dropped
By Rachel Schilke

The man who was accused of being involved in eight dangerous crimes across an 11-hour period in Washington, D.C., had been arrested on felony charges almost two years ago to the day — but they were ultimately dropped by the U.S. attorney’s office.

Police fatally shot and killed Artell Cunningham, 28, of Suitland, Maryland, on Tuesday following a string of carjackings and shootings on Monday that hospitalized a former Donald Trump administration official, who is still in critical condition, and led to the theft of several vehicles.

Court documents from Jan. 23, 2021, show that Metropolitan Police Department officers responded to calls of a shooting at an apartment building near Anacostia and Fairlawn and located Cunningham attempting to gain access to the apartment his siblings were inside. He became “physically aggressive with officers” when officers stopped him from entering the apartment, so they detained him.

“While he was detained Defendant Cunningham advised Officers that if he wasn’t released he was going to shoot them all,” MPD Officer Erica Cephus wrote in the arrest report. “Defendant Cunningham then advised ‘I swear all I need to do is make one phone call and you all will be dead’ ‘I will kill each and every one of you.'”

Cunningham was arrested on felony threats. His charges were quickly downgraded to misdemeanor threats to do bodily harm, on the same day of his arrest, per court records.  ...
