Ed. Note: Unconfirmed as of this morning but on the Brookland listserv there was also a report of a “shoot out” at Dwight Mosley Park at 1800 Perry St, NE. Updates when/if more info becomes available on that.
One resident responds on the listserv: “Legitimately 25,30 rounds of gunshots from Taft playground last night. Some seemed simultaneous so assume multiple shooters.”
