“Dear PoPville,
he scene on the 3600 block of 14th St NW in Columbia Heights (between Perry Pl and Spring Rd). I have not heard yet what happened. A passerby asked one of the police officers and the response was simply: “car accident.” The block has been shut down to traffic since at least 0800 this morning, Saturday 29 July, 2023. As of 1015 they have opened the sidewalk on the west side of the street to pedestrians.
There is at least one bicycle in a heavily damaged state. A person’s shoe remains behind near the bicycle in the road.
There seem to be five vehicles affected with various amounts of damage. Most of them seem to have been parked in the area when whatever event happened transpired. Some of the vehicle owners appeared to be present and providing statements to the police earlier this morning.”
Updates when/if an official report is released. Thanks to all who messaged us.
