“Gunshot investigation with 2 Arrests and 2 gun recoveries” in Columbia Heights/Park View/Pleasant Plains around 1:30pm

From MPD:

“At approximately 1:30pm, an MPD detective in the area of 14th and Irving street observed 2 individuals exit a vehicle and begin firing handguns. At this time, we have not located any shooting victims or individuals alleging to have been shot at.

The individuals re-entered the vehicle and attempted to flee the area. Multiple units from the 3rd District attempted to stop the vehicle, but it refused to stop. Ultimately, the vehicle stopped in the 700 block of Harvard Street NW when 1 subject was quickly apprehended. A handgun was recovered at that scene.

The second subject fled the area on foot and a perimeter was established. MPD Air Support and K-9 units responded to assist with the search for the second suspect who was ultimately apprehended in the rear alley of the 700 block of Columbia Road NW. A second firearm was recovered in that location.

We are continuing to investigate this incident however 2 individuals and 2 handguns have been taken off the streets.”

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!
