From MPD:

“On Today’s date [Sat, Feb. 1], at approximately 15:15 hours members of your Third District VICE Unit along with the Districts Detectives arrested a subject in the 700 block of Fairmont Street , NW who was wanted in connection with a recent 3D “Armed Robbery”. The subject was taken into custody without incident and was found to be carrying a firearm at the time of his arrest.

A Search Warrant was subsequently conducted on a residence for which the defendant was connected, within the same area. This warrant yielded the recovery of several additional weapons and other critical evidence.

It should be noted: this apprehension was attained thorough the hard work of the 3rd District Detectives who worked this case, as well as assistance gained from the public. For that, we at the MPD are thankful.”

and

“At approximately 2:00 AM. Third District officers confronted a suspect who had assaulted a female victim in the 700 block of Fairmont Street, Northwest

During the confrontation with the officers, the suspect displayed a handgun and pointed it at the officers.

The officers quickly grabbed the suspect and disarmed him.

As a result of the quick action of the officers the suspect was taken in to custody and the handgun was recovered.

This is the 5th handgun and 3rd BB gun that your officers recovered over the past 2 days!”
