Dear PoPville,
I was driving home from work on Rhode Island Ave, near 2nd St NE, around 9:00pm and stopped at a red light. When the light turned green I saw the guy in the car in the lane next to me lean out his window and fire four shots (+/-) into the car behind me. The shooter went by me and drove off. I called the cops and gave as much info as I could, but I wonder if there are any alerts or others that saw it. I have no idea what happened to the person behind me, but hopefully they weren’t killed. I noticed the shooter driving oddly, but definitely didn’t expect that. I wish I got a better look at him and his license plate, but maybe someone else did.

I thought the promise bridge on North Capitol St, NW might become a bit like Paris’ love locks. So far that’s not the case. As of Sat. there were only three locks. It’s actually a really beautiful spot if you look south with the Capitol in the background.
