Evance Ivwurie left this comment about Solomon James Okoroh, the cab driver shot to death around 3 a.m. Tuesday in Adams Morgan:
This is extremely sad and unbelievable. i am terrified and devastated.
Mr. Okoroh is a wonderful gentleman and one of the kindest and simplest human being I have ever encountered.
He suffered and toiled for his family, and just when the kids are performing excellently in school, then the devil came to snuff life at of this wonderful angel.
My prayer, love and deep affection goes to the family whom only the Holy Spirit can comfort.
May his gentle and honest soul rest in the bosom of the Lord.
Ercell Overton, of Northwest D.C., was arrested on suspicion of first-degree murder in connection with Okoroh’s death and was ordered held last week.
