“Dear PoPville,
L St NW is blocked off in front of my building (between 13th & 14th St) to both car & foot traffic – lots of police presence – building personnel is saying it’s related to suspicious activity. I was just wondering if anyone had more info – all I could find was this tweet from DC Traffic”

At first I thought this was probably a suspicious package but I’m hearing there may have been a specific threat directed at a building down there. Updates when more is known.
Update:
