“Dear PoP,
Just overheard reporters discussing what happened;
poodle and rottweiler Ed. Note: We’ve since learned it was a pit bull mix get in fight, owners break up dogs, but the owner of the Rottweiler’s Pit Bull mix’s dog bit him in the hands…cops tell owner to let go of dog and when he does they throw it down window recess in front of the brass knob and an officer shoots/kills dog in the window recess. I’m sure people are wondering what happened.”
What a terribly sad unfortunate incident during a normally joyous festival.
More details as they become available.
The Post reports:
“D.C. police shot and killed a dog in the middle of 18th Street in Adams Morgan. The circumstances of the shooting remain unclear, but the dog was shot and killed in the 2300 block of 18th Street around 1:40 p.m., D.C. police said.”
UPDATE from MPD 9:53pm:
“Earlier this afternoon, during the Adams Morgan Day events, an MPD officer encountered a dog in the crowded pedestrian area that got out of the control of it’s handler. The dog attacked another dog and also bit it handler. The officer, after making several attempts to subdue the dog by training tactics, had to finally shoot one time to stop the dog.

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!
