14th and A Street, SE
A reader reports:
“A house caught fire this morning on 14th and A SE. At least 3 fire engines and 2 ambulances were at the scene. Smoke was billowing out of both the front and back of the house. Several firefighters climbed on top of the house and smashed holes into the roof.
As far as I know, no one was injured, but that is not confirmed.”

“Report of House Fire – 1400blk of A St. NW – Units on the scene.
Update: Fire has been extinguished. Units are checking for extension.”
Thanks to @Susan0406 for tweeting us the example above from 17th Street, SE. Think it has potential to be a good one or is it too early to tell?

“Dear PoPville,
There’s a train horn that’s been going on since at least 11:55, but that’s just when I looked at the clock. I’m sure that the horn doesn’t exist solely to annoy me, so I was wondering if you or your readers had any idea why it’s been going on for 20+ minutes. I live in Hill East and can hear it quite clearly, so I feel bad for anyone that lives closer to the tracks or Union Station.”
