The physical altercation outside the Babylon Café on April 13 caused non-life threatening injuries for a 42-year-old man, and second 41-year-old man arrived at the hospital with a non-life-threatening gunshot wound in the arm. Both were not cooperative with police initially about what led to the fight and shooting.

A police investigation determined the 42-year-old man was forcibly removed to the parking lot from the sports bar by gang members, who assaulted him. Gang members remained in the parking lot, and the victim's acquaintance confronted them. That led to an exchange of gunfire with more than 80 rounds fired.

According to police, hundreds of law enforcement officers assisted in the large-scale arrest operation, including the Federal Bureau of Investigation; the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives; the U.S. Marshals Service; the Naval Criminal Investigative Service, the Drug Enforcement Administration; the U.S. Postal Inspection Service; the Virginia State Police; the Fairfax County Police Department; and the Philadelphia Police Department.
