Do you know who murdered McKensley Augburn? In the autumn of 2003, a young man's life was tragically cut short on the streets of Washington, D.C. McKensley Augburn, a 21-year-old African-American male, was shot and killed on Sunday, November 13, 2003. The fatal incident occurred at the intersection of 13th and H Street in the Northeast quadrant of the city.
The Metropolitan Police Department's Homicide and Sexual Offenses Branch promptly opened an investigation into Augburn's death.
Despite their efforts, the case has remained unsolved for years, leaving a community searching for answers and a family grappling with an immense loss. Law enforcement has publicly sought assistance from the public in gathering information that could lead to a breakthrough in the case.
To encourage potential witnesses to come forward, the Metropolitan Police Department has offered a substantial reward of up to $25,000. This reward is for any information that leads to the arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for McKensley Augburn's murder. To date, no arrests have been made, and no suspects have been publicly identified in connection with the shooting. The investigation remains open, a cold case file that represents a life taken too soon and a quest for justice that continues.
