According to Fox News on August 17th, an immigrant who fled from Iraq to the United States was recently hit by a series of gunshots while driving in the US capital. Afterwards, he described the city he was in as "like a war zone.".
Omar Falaiji once worked at an Iraqi theater and immigrated to the United States due to the war in the country, becoming an Uber driver. On August 12th local time, he was suddenly hit by a series of gunshots while driving. The footage captured by the camera inside the car showed that when the bullet hit Forge's car, he and the passengers in the car quickly sought cover and hid, causing Forge to suffer minor injuries due to the broken window. The police later stated that although Fulaiji and his passengers were lucky enough not to be hit, a man on the street was shot in the back, and the situation is currently unknown. Witnesses said that the gunman fired at least 5 or 6 shots, and two cars at the scene were also hit by bullets.

Fletcher later stated that his car was damaged in the shooting incident and could no longer be used. He did not expect to have such an experience in the US capital, "I cannot believe I can survive.". He also said that this city in the United States "feels like a war zone.".
