Upon officers’ arrival, one adult male was located in an unconscious state on Morton St NW with multiple gunshot wounds.

Another adult male was located in a conscious state on Georgia Avenue NW with one apparent gunshot wound to the body. The male was transported to a local hospital and listed in stable condition. There are no lookouts for any suspects at this time.

Anyone with information regarding this crime is encouraged to contact MPD at (202) 727-9099.”

“At about 3:15 PM this afternoon a Victim was shot in the rear alley of the 300 block of K St. SE. Sadly, the Victim passed away at the hospital shortly thereafter.

The lookout for the Suspect is a thin black male, wearing a black long-sleeved hooded top, a mask, and slim fitting black pants.

“On 6/23/19 at approximately 8:14 pm members of the First District responded to the 700 block of 8th St NW for a subject suffering from a gunshot to his leg. When officers arrived they were advised that two subjects were engaged in a verbal dispute. The dispute became physical and both subjects began fighting. As both subjects fell to the ground, subject 1 retrieved a handgun from his waist area. Both subjects continued to struggle and Subject 1 fired one round striking the victim in the right thigh area. Subject 1 then fled the scene. The victim sustained a non-life threatening injury. The lookout is for a Black Male, 20-30yo, white tank top, blue jeans, new balance tennis shoes.

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!
