Non-Fatal Shooting

Judge Releases Shooting, Robbery Defendant on GPS Monitoring

DC Superior Court Judge Carmen McLean released a non-fatal shooting defendant on GPS monitoring on March 11.

McKinley McClain, 19, is charged with assault with intent to commit robbery while armed for his alleged involvement in a non-fatal shooting on the 1600 block of W Street, SE on Dec. 30, 2025.

According to court documents, the victim was allegedly buying shoes from McClain when one among two other suspects pointed a gun at him. The victim attempted to run away, was tackled by one of the suspects, before they allegedly beat the victim and attempted to steal his keys. The victim managed to escape to his car and reported hearing one gunshot behind him as he drove away.

During the hearing, Judge McLean stated that McClain would be released, placing him on GPS monitoring. She also instated a curfew for McClain from 6 p. m. to 7 a. m., to allow him to finish his senior year of high school.

Parties are slated to reconvene on April 28.
