Anyone stop by? Anyone know if this Taste of Jamaica is related at all to the one that closed on H Street, NE (where the Peet’s Coffee is coming?)

Thanks to all who sent word about this story from the Washington Post:
“When Call Your Mother opens next year in the former Alfie’s space in Park View, the deli will specialize in bagels. Not Montreal bagels. Not New York bagels. But something of a hybrid developed by the team behind Timber Pizza, the Petworth shop that was recently named Pizzeria of the Year by Bon Appétit.”

“The Third District is currently investigating a double shooting at Georgia and Fairmont. 2 adult victims have been transported to area hospitals with non life threatening injuries. Anyone with information is asked to call 202-727-9099.”
“Dear PoPville,
Since i didn’t see this reported on the MPD alerts yesterday (or popville), thought i’d send it in.
I witnessed this shooting December 26th (yes, called it in); the footage is from our porch camera on New Hampshire near Spring Rd NW. Spoke at length with the officers, all 3 individuals were picked up a short time later (shooter and 2 fleeing). No one was wounded, and somehow no cars were hit either. This may have been part of a feuding gang battle last night in Park View / Columbia Heights / Petworth (specifically the shooting on Warder).”
