A horrific tragedy struck the Baltimore Jewish community on Wednesday, as word spread of the murder of a young member of the kehilla in nearby Washington, D.C.
Sources tell YWN that Aryeh Wolf, approximately 25 years old, was shot at around 3:45 pm Wednesday while working on the 5100 block of Call Place in Washington. He was rushed to a local hospital where he was R”L Niftar.
Details surrounding his murder are unknown, and Detectives from D.C. Police are investigating. Sources tell YWN that he was working in construction and was at a property when the shooting occurred.
The Metropolitan Police Department told YWN that they are offering a reward of up to $25,000 to anyone that provides information which leads to the arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for the homicide. Anyone with information about this case is asked to call the police at 202-727-9099. Additionally, anonymous information may be submitted to the department’s TEXT TIP LINE by sending a text message to 50411.
The Niftar leaves behind his wife, Mindy (Aron), a 6-month-old child, and a grieving community of family and friends.
The niftar’s parents are Asher and Elise; his mother is a principal in Bais Yaakov of Baltimore.
Misaskim of Baltimore is working alongside Agudah and other Askonim to ensure proper Kavod Hames.
The Levaya will be today, August 11th at 4:00 PM at Sol Levinson in Baltimore.

TRAGEDY STRIKES BALTIMORE:
TRAGEDY STRIKES ALL JEWS ACROSS THE ENTIRE WORLD:

hope everyone learns their lesson to vote in republicans
for those that’ll accuse me of politicizing the murder of a yid, I’ll say this: Lo saamod al dam rie’echa!!! do what you can to prevent these tragedies and step one is the destruction of the democratic crime party
(and by the way, the dems politicize every tragedy too!)

To jack p: your comment is ridiculous. Find some information to support what you wrote, if you can.
How come the FBI had no clue that this murder was about to take place.
The FBI has so many different types of devices and technology and eavesdropping equipment, why didn’t the FBI pick up on this earlier and arrest the guy before he commits the murder?
Oh I forgot!
Silly me!
They were busy with Trump in Florida.
They had about 38 FBI agents in Florida.
I would like to apologize on behalf of the FBI, We were extremely busy in Florida, we needed to read about 600,000 documents that we found at the Trump residence. After we finish going thru all the 600,000 documents, we will gladly go back to our old job of trying to catch the real criminals. The FBI would like to advise the entire USA population to please stay indoors and do not leave your home under any circumstances until we completely finish our investigation on former President Trump.
Again we are sorry for this drastic and wild decision.
Are hearts are broken here in Baltimore – please leave all your politicking out, its a Bizayon HaMes.
I knew this young man when he was a student at TA
A polite kid with good middos
What a terrible tragedy

Jack P:
“step one is the destruction of the democratic crime party” – Very true!
Crime in the US is rampaging out of control primarily because of the demo-rat party.
Saving lives of innocent citizens is NOT politics at all!
HUJU:
you don’t need to go further than new York city, san Francisco and LA
all reported on continuously by YWN
this is a heart breaking tragedy and w have a chiyuv hishtadlus to vote in law and order mayors and governors which is much more common among republicans than demo-rats ; the only crimes they go after are the ones they’re trying to manufacture on trump
