Alexandria Police Department Asks Public to Help Locate Homicide Suspect Ibrahm Elkahlil Bouaichi
The Alexandria Police Department is asking the public to help locate Ibrahm Elkahlil Bouaichi (pronounced EE-brahm El-ka-lil Boo-AH-chee), who is wanted for the July 29 murder of Karla Elizabeth Dominguez Gonzalez. Bouaichi is described as 33 year-old man of Middle Eastern descent, 6 feet 2 inches tall, weighing approximately 180 pounds.

Anyone who sees or comes into contact with Bouaichi should call 911 immediately. In some places, including in Alexandria, you can text 911 if you can't call. Anyone with information about the July 29 murder or Bouaichi’s whereabouts may provide it anonymously.
On July 29, 2020, at 6:20 a.m., the Alexandria Police Department responded to a call regarding shots fired on S. Greenmount Drive.

APD Fallen Officers Memorial Wreath Laying Ceremony
Last Friday, May 15, 2020--we held a Memorial Wreath Laying Ceremony in honor of Peace Officers Memorial Day at our Fallen Officers Memorial. The Alexandria Police Fallen Officers Memorial was completed in 2011 and recognizes the 18 officers who have died in the line of duty. Even with the current health pandemic causing us to modify the wreath laying in accordance with social distancing guidelines, we must never forget to recognize those who gave the ultimate sacrifice for their valor and for protecting those in Alexandria. In these uncertain times we reflect to honor those who have given all to ensure the safety of others.
