“Dear PoPville,
We were the victims of a car robbery Friday afternoon. At Florida and W St NW.
We were just moving back to DC after living in Los Angeles for the last year and a half. Right when we got to our apartment complex, as we were unloading our bags from our Lyft, someone stepped into our driver’s car and drove away with several of our bags inside. My wife was also in the car when the guy drove off, but thankfully he pulled over to let her out a few seconds later.
There were plenty of witnesses on the scene. (more…)
