Former Trump official Mike Gill dead days after Washington DC carjacking: report
The New York Post ^ | 02/02/2024 | Patrick Reilly

Former Trump official Mike Gill, who was shot by a carjacker Monday in Washington D.C., died from his wounds on Saturday***

“It is with profound sadness that I wish to inform the community of the passing of my husband, Mike Gill,” his wife, Kristina Gill,*** “His sudden departure has left a void in our lives that can never be filled.”

Gill had served as Trump’s chief operating officer of the Commodity Futures Trading.

Gill was picking his wife up from work when 28-year-old Artell Cunningham got inside his parked car outside of an office building on K street and shot him in the head around 5:45 p.m., according to police.

Witness Yolanda Douglas told the Washington Post that she saw Gill after the shooting sprawled on the pavement with the car door open and one foot still in the passenger’s side of the car. Blood pooled around his head, she said.

Douglas said she saw a woman come out of a building on the block while frantically screaming, “Oh my God, that’s my husband” before running to him and grabbing his hand.

After the shooting, Cunningham fled on foot. He tried to steal another vehicle around 7 p.m. on 3rd Street. About 10 minutes later, he fatally shot 35-year-old Alberto Vazquez, Jr. and drove off in his car.

He stole two more cars before he allegedly opened fire at a D.C. police officer along I-295 and a Maryland State Police trooper who was assisting a disabled vehicle along I-95 in Laurel, Maryland around 2:30 a.m. the next day.

No officers were injured.

Around 4:30 a.m., Cunningham was shot and killed by New Carrollton police officers after he allegedly came at them with two guns in Prince George’s County.

Officials believe the rampage was the result of a mental breakdown.

The Corrupt “Liberal” News Media plays the Crazy Card again to mitigate the damage to their racist, bogus narrative that only whites can be violently racist.

“Liberalism” has killed journalism!

The article says that he was shot in the head. Perhaps it is best that he did not survive.

I am disgusted by this news report. It is long past time that car-jacking was given the punishment it deserves. Horrible!

Funny. He doesn’t look black. Probably a set up hit, though.
