Thanks to all who messaged us from 14th and Florida Ave, NW starting just after 610pm last night:

“Free2Move, Not a drive through liquor store.”
“The owner (of the liquor store) is a great guy who always cheers everyone in the neighborhood up. Hopefully the community can help when he reopens” (more…)
A reader reported Sunday around 12:30pm: “Was walking back from Seylou and saw a car crash on the corner of 11th and Nst NW. car was empty and was hearing talk that it was a stolen car and the suspects just fled. Right as we passed it the DC Police chopper started doing search rings around the area and more cop cars showed up.”

9th and Rhode Island Ave, NW Friday around 2:30pm
“Dear PoPville,
We were driving at 20-25 mph through Rhode Island coming from NE to NW DC. We had just started crossing 9th street NW after the signal had been green for a few seconds. Suddenly a white Dodge Charger, driving at what I estimate was >70 mph, skipped the red light on 9th street and hit our car on the left side. Thankfully the impact was mostly on the front and not the passenger side door, otherwise it would have been much worse. (more…)

Thanks to Brian for sending around 6pm:
“Worst intersection in the neighborhood to walk through, lucky that this doesn’t happen more often.
The M Street drag strip from the Wharf all the way to the Southeast Freeway is pretty terrible, but it’s at its worst where it sees a lot of pedestrian crossings. I really hope nobody was injured, but especially that no pedestrians were involved.”
Joe reports: “2 am between Fuller and Euclid on 16th NW. Heard a monstrous crash and thought i was dreaming but only one car upside down.
now I think i see what the car hit – those two almost totalled”
