Ali Muhammed Brown

Ali Muhammad Brown, 30, was charged with two counts of aggravated first-degree murder. Two gay men were his victims. Ahmed Said 27, and Dwone Anderson-Young, 23 were shot in the head on the 1st of June near the home of one of the victims.

Brown is currently on the run and police are hunting him in New Jersey following a cafe robbery and attempted car-jacking. Brown has been described as an 'American-born Muslim extremist.'

According to documents released by the courts, Brown may have used a social app to meet with the two men, and that there are no signs of robbery or drugs as a motive. Police say that Ahmed Said, may have been targeted because he was a gay man with a Muslim sounding name.

'It is evident that the murders were premeditated and unprovoked and part of a common scheme or plan,” Senior Deputy Prosecutor Wyman Yip wrote in the charging documents. 'The evidence from the crime scene, Said’s vehicle, and the autopsies suggest that the victims were essentially executed.'

The victims had been enjoying an evening at R Place, a popular gay nightclub on Capitol Hill. According to his friends Ahmed Said told them that he was meeting a "friend" outside the club.

Brown could potentially face the death penalty if convicted of the double homicide. A Judge in Ocean County has issued a $500,000 arrest warrant for Brown.

The gay community has been warned by Police Chiefs to be careful when meeting new people on apps such as Grindr or Jack'd.
