A 21-year-old congressional intern was killed Monday night in what police believe was a targeted shooting that claimed an unintended victim in Northwest Washington, D.C. Eric Tarpinian-Jachym, of Granby, Massachusetts, died Tuesday after being shot the night before near the intersection of 7th and M Street.

Jachym, a UMass Amherst finance student, was fatally shot in DC in what police believe was a targeted attack where he wasn't the intended victim.

A Massachusetts student who was working as an intern on Capitol Hill is being remembered for having a “kind heart” after he was gunned down earlier this week.
