At least 20 shots fired in our neighborhood again. A neighbor shares: “I'm freaking out holding all three of my kids and hoping no stray bullets hit us. I'm done. We are leaving the city. This is not normal and it is stupid that I'm putting my family at risk.”

This shooting suspect is a name & age match with someone arrested in November 2023 with 2 pistols & 3 shotguns. They may have been a SPO & the plea deal resulted in no jail time.

@311DCgov I’ve read the definition for abandoned vehicle and I don’t understand why this doesn’t qualify as being abandoned and tow eligible? Please clarify.

Really alarming data about traffic deaths. We need a comprehensive response here—better road design and better enforcement against reckless drivers.

This is why the murder increase in D.C. is especially alarming. The rest of the country is headed down and D.C. has a 20-year high.

"Homicides in the U.S. dropped significantly in 2022 and have plummeted even faster this year, putting the country on track for one of the biggest declines in killing ever recorded, crime statistics show." Surprised to hear that? You're not alone:

The huge decrease in the # of truancy referrals screened by Court Social Services (CSSD) suggests they are now ignoring hundreds of referrals a year from DC schools. They aren't even covering 1/3 of the DCPS referrals, let alone the DCPCS ones! What is going on? (1/

Shocking reporting in this piece. Drug dealers have overrun housing where the District is paying $2600 for a small 1-bedroom apartment. We need accountability in these programs.

On weekday mornings, Lewis Watts leaves his tiny second-floor apartment along Quincy Street in Northwest D.C. Often, his path downstairs is blocked by passed-out drug users and what they leave behind — beer cans, the remnants of takeout meals, the burnt smell of crack cocaine.
