Dear PoP – Crime Scenes Friday Night

“Dear PoP,

When I got out of the movies at Gallery Place last night around 10pm
they had crime scene tape running from the theater all the way out to
the chipotle. There were lots of cops and other emergency personnel
and a firetruck on the street outside. My friend said she saw blood in
the cordoned off area. And of course none of the cops would say what
happened.

Then when I got off the metro at U St. 15 min. later there was a
similar scene. The area that is right in front of the entrance was
cordoned off and metro police cars were crammed in every which way
blocking U St. from 13th to 12th. Didn’t see any blood, but there were
a lot of angry teenagers yelling about harassment.

I didn’t get a crime alert and the only thing I could think of was
that there must have been some retaliations from the earlier fight at
Union Station. Please let me know what you can find out?”

“We had a fight in the back alley by Clydes- subjects arrested”

Anyone know what happened at U St?
