“Dear PoPville,

This weekend, the mural of the White House on the alleyway between 18th St and Champlain in Adams Morgan was graffiti’d over. Yesterday morning there was a workman painting the entire wall back to white. It’s a shame this iconic mural is no more.

Not sure whose artwork it was or who actually owns the wall, but I would be interested to know if anyone plans to restore it.”

Unfortunately this mural often was hit with graffiti. It’s unfortunate they weren’t able to salvage it. When I stopped by yesterday the top of the mural was still visible. Here’s how it looked in 2009:

From MPD:

“At approximately 8:05 pm, at 1759 Columbia Road, NW, a complainant left his vehicle running while he ran into the 7-11. A suspect jumped into the complainant’s vehicle and drove off.

A short time later, the stolen vehicle was spotted at the McDonalds at Georgia Avenue, NW, and Barry Place, NW. The male suspect was seen leaving the stolen vehicle and walking into the McDonalds, by a Third District officer. Third District officers surrounded the area and the suspect was captured.

The male suspect was positively identified by the complainant and arrested and charged with Theft 1 Stolen Auto.”

The Washington Post reported Sunday morning:

“A Bethesda man was beaten and robbed early Saturday morning in Adams Morgan by three men who yelled, “This is for Trayvon Martin,” before attacking him, police said.”

They say the incident took place in the 1700 block of Euclid Street NW around 1:30 a.m. Saturday. The police say they have not seen a pattern here so hopefully this is a horrible isolated incident.
