“Dear PoPville,
My car and a few others were street parked over the weekend in Park View (Newton Place and Georgia Ave, NW) and hit around 330 AM. I was able to get video footage, but cannot identify the license plate from the video. In the video there’s a few witnesses, so I am seeking any information people may have. Thank you!”
