A vigil on Monday night remembered two siblings and two other young people shot and killed in two double homicides in D.C. The deaths happened in the last week.

Twenty-eight-year-old Jamie Jenkins was robbed before calling her 21-year-old brother Jamahl for help on Saturday. Later in the night, both were shot and killed. Police currently have no suspects.

The shootings occurred at East Capitol Street NE.

The vigil for the brother and sister was held at Ridge Road in Southeast, where two other individuals, 19-year-old Anthony Chase and 27-year-old Eric Leeper, were gunned down on Wednesday.

Mayor Vincent Gray spoke at the vigil as well as Councilmembers Tommy Wells and Yvette Alexander.
