On Friday night, Courtney was shot and killed near Malcom X Boulevard and Martin Luther King Jr. Avenue in the Southeast as she was riding her scooter.

"At the end of the day we're going to have to exercise some community responsibility for each other," said D.C. Mayor Muriel Bower. "Nyiah was killed – somebody else could be killed tonight -- somebody else could be killed the next night. Because too many people are willing to use guns to solve whatever conflict there may be."
