Shots Fired at 9th and Quincy St, NW Around 7:40pm, Suspect Found by MPD

“Dear PoPville,

Was walking my dog and chatting with another dog owner and his friends when we all heard 4 or 5 pops. The other guys jumped behind a building and told my husband and I “those weren’t fireworks, better head home” and sure enough, about 10 minutes later, police had crime scene tape up blocking access to 9th Street NW, just south of Quincy.”

MPD writes:

“At about 7:40 pm, Fourth District police received a call for sounds of gunshots in the 3700 block of 9th Street, NW. Once on the scene, officers discovered several damaged vehicles. Investigation led police to a suspect hiding nearby. There are no reported injuries and the investigation is still ongoing.

If anyone witnessed or has information about this event, please contact the Metropolitan Police Department at (202) 727-9099.”

One more closing to report in Dupont thanks to Andrea:

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!
