“Dear PoPville,

I thought that I would shoot over a message in regard to our building and neighborhood. A few weeks ago, a male and female (whom we are assuming are a couple or partnered) entered the vestibule of our condo building in Shaw/Logan Circle, loitered, and pulled the fire alarm at 4:00 a.m. Since then, there have been numerous attempts for this couple to enter the building again, (more…)


From Lost & Found (1240 9th Street, NW):

“We are giving our Blagden Alley patio space a “glow up” for the 2022 season and are planning a spring party to celebrate! We’re hosting Blake King, Founder of ToriSumi Yakitori, who will be grilling chicken and veggie skewers to order on Wednesday, April 27th from 6-9pm.

This is a ticketed, outdoor event limited to 30 guests and includes 5 yakitori skewers and choice of two wine or beer pairings. Tickets can be purchased Eventbrite page.

Update part one: Pablo has been found!! Will update again when Bruno is hopefully found soon too.

Pablo’s owner reports: “Attached are some photos of Pablo, as well as the thief/thieves. They took him from my boyfriend at gunpoint while I was in CVS. They took his phone, but the “find my iPhone” showed it had been ditched, and the car was stolen so dead end there. He’s 11 weeks and we’ve had him less than 2 weeks. We intended on fostering but immediately fell in love and adopted on the spot. We got him from K9 Lifesavers and they’ve generously offered to donate the $5,000 reward.

We are so insanely in love with him even after such a short time. He loves attention and has certainly gotten no shortage of it on our walks.

Detectives say the robbers will likely try to sell him so we’re asking people to keep an eye out on Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace. Also would love help spreading the word to area vets.
