Three people were shot and killed Saturday night in Southeast, as the District endures a bloody start to August.
Acting Metropolitan Police Chief Pamela Smith said two men and a woman were pronounced dead at the scene of Saturday’s 8 p.m. shooting near the intersection of 16th Street and Good Hope Road in Southeast.
“This gun violence has to stop. It is incredibly frustrating. We know that someone in the community knows what is happening,” Chief Smith said, urging anyone with information to come forward.Earlier Saturday, violence rattled parts of Northwest after three men were killed in two separate shootings.
