On August 13, officers observed Hattix and another suspect engaged in what appeared to be a drug sale in a parking lot in the 300 block of Smallwood Drive. Following the sale, the officers conducted a traffic stop of a vehicle being driven by the other suspect. During the stop, the driver, identified as Domanic Domanic Marks-Wiggins, 28, of Washington, D.C., exited the car and fled on foot. He was apprehended, and a loaded 9mm handgun and cannabis were recovered from his vehicle. Marks-Wiggins is prohibited from possessing a firearm due to a previous felony conviction for a crime of violence. He was arrested and charged with possession of a loaded firearm in a car, illegal possession of a firearm and ammunition, possession of a firearm without a serial number, and other related offenses.
