A reader reported: “Heard what sounded like a shootout from my apartment on 16th in Mt pleasant. Sounds coming from Columbia Heights. Can now hear choppers circling”

From MPD around 10pm: “Alert: Shooting Investigation in the 3100 block of 16th Street NW. Lookout for a B/M, wearing a light gray hoodie with dreadlocks.”

14th and Irving Street, NW

Thanks to T. for sending: “Saw workers peeling back white window coverings to reveal the sign on my morning commute. I’m almost thinking it’s a leftover from wawa days, but they didn’t have “coming soon” signs when they were open

Wawa closed here back in June 2022.

Think Wawa could really be coming back or just an old sign?

Update from another reader:

“I live in that building. I believe that sign is from before the walls went up behind that window and before the outside of the windows were covered up, so an old sign.”
