Good Morning,

                         

MPD is currently investigating a shooting that occurred just after midnight last evening on the 200 block of V St NW. An adult victim was shot in the leg and was conscious and breathing.    

My team and I are coordinating with MPD and monitoring developments as they become available. Anyone with information on this incident is asked to call MPD at 202-727-9099. Additionally, if you live near 2^nd and V St NW and have a private security camera that faces the street, please contact MPD at the number above. If you’d like to participate in DC’s Private Security Camera Incentive Program in the future, follow this link to find out more.            

This incident occurred in Police Service Area 306​. Police Service Areas (PSAs) are how MPD divides up its Police Districts (Ward 1 is part of Districts 3 and 4). PSAs regularly meet to engage with the community on issues of public safety. You can stay updated on developments in the 3rd Police District and learn about upcoming PSA meetings by subscribing to the official MPD listserv for the area.

        

Sincerely,
