Anthony Fountain, 42, male, African-American/Black, was killed on September 1, 2009, in Washington, D.C. In the early hours of that morning, his life ended violently, and the date of death matches the date he was found. Public details compiled since then identify his name, age, gender, race, and the city where the crime occurred, but provide little about the circumstances leading up to the attack or what he was doing in the moments before it happened.
Over the years, the case has been tracked among D.C. homicide records maintained online, with periodic updates noting the basic facts but not adding new narrative threads. There is no public indication that investigators have announced a suspect, released a detailed motive, or described a sequence of events beyond confirming the violent nature of his death. The absence of additional source links or investigative bulletins attached to his case profile underscores how spare the public record remains.
As of the most recent update, there are no publicly reported arrests connected to the killing of Anthony Fountain, and authorities have not identified a suspect by name. The case remains one of many in the District where families and neighbors have had to live with unanswered questions, waiting for the piece of information that might move the investigation forward.
