This morning in broad daylight, two men keyed our car locks in attempt to steal it from the street at 1st and V Streets NW. They were both African American in their mid-to-late 20s. One stayed in the passenger seat as lookout while the other did the damage.  Upon taking the photos he verbally threatened me and wielded an object, presumably as a weapon, in my direction. 

They drove a black Ford pickup with a covered back cab. TRUCK license plate from Texas with tag number: “TX 205 274”.  

Pictures of the driver and the truck are attached and have been filed with the police.

Neighbors: Please be vigilant, see something say something, register for the DC Camera rebate program, and let’s demand action from DC Police to install dedicated CCTVs on our streets.
