Intern for House Republican Member Gunned Down in DC
An intern for Rep. Ron Estes was killed in a Northwest D.C. shooting. Details on this from Correspondent Bernie Bennett.
VERBATIM: Eric Tarpinian-Jachym was shot and killed in Northwest D.C. on Monday night, Metropolitan Police and the Kansas Republican confirmed.
The Intern would have been a senior at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst this fall.
The 21-year-old was a Granby, Mass., resident who joined Estes’ office earlier in June. Metropolitan Police said in a statement Wednesday that detectives believe he was not the intended target of the shooting.
Police responded to the sound of gunshots on the 1200 block of Seventh Street Northwest just before 10:30 p.m. Monday night.
