Shooting at Peace Baptist Church | Washington DC News

A shooting erupted outside Peace Baptist Church in D.C. during a “stop the violence” rally — ironic timing, given the event’s intent. Two men were wounded but expected to survive. Police discovered a 16-year-old with two guns in his backpacks nearby, charging him with multiple offenses, though he’s not yet confirmed as the shooter. The victims had no ties to the church or rally, making the violence even more jarring. The incident unfolded around 4:05 PM in a utility area behind the church, with witnesses inside the building.
