How charming.
No mystery why the MPD gun registration line was out the door recently?
Shame that Americans are so fearful they think they need guns.
It’s a shame that you are so fearful that you lock your front door…
And what is with all the masked armed robberies and carjackings lately?!
Should they be unmasked?
Apparently (1) the LeDroit Park shooting took place in a building on 4th just north of T in an apartment that neighbors believe drugs were being sold out of; (2) the shooting was the result of a drug deal “gone bad”; and (3) the victim was only “grazed” by the bullet. Heard this from a neighbor who heard it from a resident of the building where the shooting took place, so I guess that means it’s second or third hand info. On the one hand, it’s nice to know this wasn’t a random act of violence. On the other hand, it sucks to know your neighbors are dealing drugs. Internet whiners, please start complaining about those last two sentences… NOW.
and this kids… is the reason (one of many, actually) why you don’t do drugs
Does anyone know what happened in the area of NY Ave/First St/M St NW yesterday morning? Saw the area was blocked off for police for a couple hours.
I think I saw something about a Pedestrian hit and run accident.
