^yes. The only danger at this location is being run over by a motorist from Maryland.

Faison's writeups make me crazy. And not in a good "I'm crazy for buying this house!" way.
The Dancing Crab's commercials have to be the worst I've ever seen. The owners saying,...
That is too bad I stop there all the time to get the basics that cost too much at the yes. I saw the police there last night and hoped it was just a robbery a shame someone died. They are very nice family run business.
I don’t get it. Aren’t crimes supposed to go down in the cold?
I also thought these neighborhoods were getting better?
Jiff,
shit happens everywhere…….
Sleepy,
surprisingly crime is going up the colder it gets in all east coast cities…..
Shadow, but its much, much, much more common in DC.
This might be a stupid question, but does hearing gunshots count as “having information”?? I don’t think it qualifies, but I definitely heard those early AM shots at 15th and Fuller.
Yeah, I can’t really think of how that info would be useful.
