“Dear PoPville,
Anyone know what happened on 1st St NW, just a few houses down from 1st and Bryant? There was just an ambulance on the block tending to a man who seemed to have some minor wounds on his arm. Police seemed to be walking up and down the block looking for someone. The ambulance left and now the man is being interviewed by a few cops and some men in business suits.”
From MPD:
“On Sunday, June 12, 2016, at approximately 10:40PM, the complainant reports while in the 2300 block of First Street NW he was approached by the suspect who was armed with a handgun. The suspect demanded the complainant’s property, in which the complainant complied by turning over his personal property. A second suspect demanded that they go for a walk when he demanded the complainant enter the password on his phone. The suspects fled on foot.
Lookout for the suspects:
Suspect 1: black male, 18-20 years of age, 5’9″, black dreadlocks, dark shirt and dark pants armed with silver and black handgun.
Suspect 2: black male, 18-20 years of age, 5’7″, short hair, dark shirt and dark pants.
Any persons with information regarding this crime may contact the Fifth District Detectives’ Office at 202-698-0260, or the MPD Command Information Center at 202-727-9099. Reference CCN# 16-095-970.”

We’re about a month out from summer. That means you’ve still got time for spring cleaning!
Lexi Grant, an operations manager at Well-Paid Maids, shared her go-to spring cleaning tips with WTOP News. Step one? Declutter. Get rid of items you don’t use, find space for items that need a home and organize those areas.
Then, it’s time to dust. Lexi starts with high-touch surface areas (think: refrigerator, dishwasher, counters, microwave). One area she sees often neglected is the bedroom — and it makes sense. Heavy furniture is difficult to move around, but it’s important to really get in there so dust doesn’t affect your sleep.
