Columbia Heights

What the Heck is going on with the “temporarily closed” Lidl in Columbia Heights? Also, ABOUT that huge police presence earlier this morning on Girard

Thanks to Daniel for sending: “From the lidl in Columbia heights, nothing posted on their website but this on the door.”

I’m hearing there is a “deep cleaning” going on but not details on why and how long it will take. Stay tuned.

And earlier this morning a few folks were asking about the giant police presence around 14th and Girard Street, NW:

“Police had the street blocked off on Girard b/w 14th and 15th NW and I counted at least 8 cars just on 14th when I went by around 7:15 this morning.”

I’m told it was related to: “a Capital Area Regional Fugitive Task Force officer-involved shooting that occurred in the 1400 block of Girard Street, Northwest.”

Updates if/when more is released.
