Disabled Washington DC man, 64, is beaten to death 'by three girls aged 12 and 13, on street who were seen celebrating after', with youngest suspect later shot by masked assailant in her home

A 12-year-old girl was shot by a masked assailant in Washington, D.C., after she and two teen girls beat an elderly disabled man to death last fall.

Reggie Brown of Northwest D.C. was 64-years-old when he was brutally beaten to death by the three girls, age 12 and 13, on Georgia Avenue in October.

Horrific video seen by detectives showed the physically handicapped man being kicked and stomped on by the pre-teens.

Detective Harry Singleton testified on Friday that a man in a blue coat threw the 64-year-old to the ground and then the suspect along with the group of girls chased Brown as he tried to escape.

After the 1am beating, the girls 'appeared to be in a celebratory mood' as they walked away from the scene of the crime.

An autopsy determined that he died of blunt force trauma and was a homicide victim.

'My uncle really didn't deserve this,' a niece of Brown's said in a statement to News4.

'He was known in this community for years so for this to happen where he lived for 64 [years] is insane. They have to be held accountable!'

Detective Singleton found no connection between Brown and the three girls, who are not being identified due to their ages.

In a shocking twist of events, the 12-year-old girl linked to the crime was shot in her apartment on Friday at around 4am. Her Peabody Street apartment in the 500 block is only about a half-mile away from the scene of the brutal beating.

The gunshot hit the girl in the leg and she was taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

Police have not said whether the gunfire came from inside or outside of the apartment - but video of the scene shows a shattered pane of a first floor window.

More and more I am reminded of the scene in The Godfather where the bosses met and decided to allow them into the drug business. One boss stood up and said.....well, something about keeping it in certain areas...they are animals anyway.

They aren’t animals , God loves all people.....but it sure seems there are certain areas where people act like animals. More and More and more......

This is more like killing a rabid animal.

Shame she wasn’t put down.

“Shame she wasn’t put down.”

Last year around that time a 12 year old D.C. boy was shot and killed as he attempted another armed car jacking where the driver happened to be armed.

I initially thought the young perp was given well deserved vigilante justice.

That is sad. I’ll leave it up to you to decide just what part is sad.

Vigilantes are appropriate when a member of a persons family is killed or raped, and their loved ones find it impossible to get “legal” justice. I have no problem with it. Get your own justice, but take time to plan it out right, get some range time, shoot for center mass, and then keep your mouth shut about it.

If "Batman" was real, the Democrats would arrest him.

I hate stories with sad endings.

Show their pictures for one, and if proven guilty then give them the death sentence. I don’t care about their age. You have to be really evil to do what they did.

Yes, Yogi. The victim is black. If it wasn’t “them,” the article surely would have pointed it out and called it a hate crime.
