bus suspect

From WMATA:

“Metro Transit Police are seeking the public’s assistance to identify a person of interest in an overnight incident in which multiple shots were fired at a Metrobus operating on the D14 route in District Heights, Md.

The incident occurred at approximately 10:30 p.m. Monday, March 27, in the area of Regency Lane and Regency Parkway in District Heights.

A male subject exited the bus and then fired multiple times at the rear of the vehicle. A total of nine bullets struck the bus; however, none penetrated the passenger compartment, and there were no injuries to any of the ten passengers or the bus operator.

Upon hearing the shots, the Metrobus operator moved the bus to a safe location (Suitland Metrorail Station), where police responded. The suspect fled the scene.

Police do not have a motive for the shooting at this time.

Anyone with information about this incident or the person of interest shown below is urged to contact Metro Transit Police detectives by calling (301) 955-5000. Tips may also be sent via text message to “MyMTPD” (696873).”

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!

The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!

What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
