On August 5, 2019, at approximately 1:15 pm, patrol officers responded to the report of a large fight in the 5600 block of Suitland Road. The officers encountered a large group of people who had just attended a funeral service at a church in a strip mall at that location. The funeral had been held for a victim of a homicide in the District of Columbia. As officers were attempting to diffuse the fight, they heard gunshots nearby. Officers responded one block away to the 5800 block of Suitland Road and discovered Alkebular next to a car suffering from a gunshot wound. He died later that evening.

The preliminary investigation reveals Alkebular attended the funeral. Following the service, he and group began to leave the area. The suspects followed behind and when they were close enough, Hoes shot into the victim’s car. Occupants in the victim’s car did return fire, striking Hoes in the arm. A short time later, Hoes walked into a local hospital for treatment. Sam, who was driving the suspect vehicle, was not hurt.
Hoes remains hospitalized in the District of Columbia where Sam is also in custody. Both are awaiting extradition to Prince George’s County.
Homicide detectives determined the motive in this case was an on-going feud between two groups who live in Washington DC. Hoes and Sam are charged with first degree murder and related charges.

MURDER USA: ERIC BYRD FUNERAL RIOT! GUNFIRE! HELL-RAISING! MAN SHOT DEAD WAS CONVICTED OF EASTER STABBING AT NATIONAL ZOO; 3 WOUNDED

SUITLAND, MD – Will the funeral home give a discount to anyone murdered while attending a funeral such as nearly took place at a Frederick funeral home when a funeral was held for a drug dealer recently or that took place in PG County on Aug. 5, 2019, in Suitland?

The funeral which precipitated the new murder, that of a man who was convicted of a stabbing that took place at the National Zoo on Easter Monday in 2011, was held for all of the man’s friends and family to bury Eric D. Byrd, 34. 

Byrd, of 4305 3rd Street SE Apt 101, Washington, D.C.  Byrd was murdered in the District of Columbia on July 20, 2019, at 2:45 am near the U Street Music Hall.

 Police say that Byrd was in a heated argument with another man when he learned the hard way that he couldn’t back up his mouth like the other guy, who was packing heat. The man pulled out a gun and shot Byrd several times. Police say no one else in the area was injured by the gunfire.

Prince George’s Police say that their Homicide Unit detectives are investigating a fatal shooting that occurred in Suitland on Monday after a large fight broke out between warring elements of hooligans who apparently have their own way of celebrating the death of a fellow miscreant.

The funeral in the Deliverance Headquarters for All People Church located in a strip mall turned into a riot as seen in a surveillance video and included in a news report from NBC 4 Washington at the bottom of this news story.

The victim is 24-year-old Mshairi Alkebular Jr., of Southeast Washington. Preliminarily, detectives do not believe this was a random crime.

That is police speak for saying that Alkebular was murdered, not a victim of random gunfire so common to the killing fields of Prince Georges County, Md.

On August 5th, at approximately 1:15 pm, PG Police patrol officers responded for the report of a large fight at the strip mall church on Suitland Road and encountered a large group of people who had just attended a funeral service at the Deliverance Headquarters.

As officers were attempting to scatter the brawling mourners who were mixing it up in the fight, they heard gunshots nearby.

Officers responded one block away to the 5800 block of Suitland Road and discovered Alkebular next to a car suffering from a gunshot wound. Officers provided emergency lifesaving measures on the scene and Alkebular was transported to a local hospital where he died late Monday night. 

Prince Georges Police have determined that three additional people were injured as a result of the gunfire, but they were only winged.

 Police are trying to figure out the exact order that the heathens went wild at the funeral in order to find clues as to whom fired the various gunshots and plugged Alkebular.

Detectives are actively working to determine the sequence of events following the funeral.

VIOLENT THUG MET HIS FINAL SENTENCE

Mshairi Alkebular Sentenced to Prison for Easter Monday Attack at the National Zoo – He Stabbed Victim in Two Attacks That Day

     WASHINGTON – Mshairi Alkebular, 16, of Washington, D.C., was sentenced on Oct. 11, 2011, to 82 months of incarceration for carrying out a pair of attacks against another teenager on Easter Monday at the National Zoo, U.S. Attorney Ronald C. Machen Jr. announced.

     Alkebular, who was charged as an adult, pled guilty in June 2011 in the Superior Court of the District of Columbia to charges of assault with a dangerous weapon and carrying a dangerous weapon. At the sentencing, the Honorable Herbert B. Dixon Jr. said that he will recommend the defendant receive services during his time in prison, including life skills training, psychological treatment, drug treatment, and educational services. Upon completion of the prison term, Alkebular will be placed on three years of supervised release.

Alkebular attacked the 14-year-old victim at about 4 p.m. on April 25, 2011, the day after Easter. The violence took place inside and outside the National Zoo

     According to the government’s evidence, Alkebular attacked the 14-year-old victim at about 4 p.m. on April 25, 2011, the day after Easter. The violence took place inside and outside the National Zoo, which is located in the 3000 block of Connecticut Avenue NW.

VIOLENT GANG FROM SOUTHEAST DC STALKED VICTIM AT ZOO

     The victim had arrived at the zoo at about 3:30 p.m. that day, and he saw the defendant, who he knew as “Swipa,” with a group of other young men who he recognized as being from the Barry Farm area of Southeast Washington. The victim attempted to avoid the group.

     However, after throwing a chair at the victim, members of the group, led by Alkebular, surrounded him and struck him several times with closed fists. Alkebular pulled out a silver knife and stabbed the victim twice in the arm. The defendant and his group then ran away.

     A short time later, the victim left the National Zoo alone, exiting through the Connecticut Avenue gate. Upon exiting, he once again saw Alkebular and the rest of his group. He attempted to run away, but the defendant and his group chased him. Once again, members of the group surrounded the victim and punched and kicked him. The victim fell to the ground and the assault continued. Alkebular again pulled out his knife and stabbed the victim four times in the torso. The defendant and his group then ran toward the nearby Metro station at Woodley Park.

     The victim was transported to a hospital and treated for multiple stab wounds and a fractured jaw. He immediately was able to identify his assailant and described the knife and clothing that Alkebular was wearing at the time. MPD officers subsequently went to the area of 7th and F Streets NW, where they encountered the defendant, wearing the clothing described by the victim and carrying the knife that matched the description provided by the victim.

The outbreak of violence at the Zoo wasn’t the first in recent times, to take place when the event, held for more than 100 years for black families, was ripped apart in 2000, by another 16-year-old from DC that opened fire with a gun and injured seven children.
