The shooting occurred about 11:45 a.m. in the 4200 block of Sixth Street SE, at Chesapeake Street near Hendley Elementary School.Acting D.C. police chief Pamela A. Smith, who has been on the job less than two weeks, said the wounded person suffered life-threatening injuries and was being treated at a hospital. Police did not immediately divulge ages or genders of the victims.
No arrests were made, and police said they were looking for a four-door red Jeep with four people inside. Smith said two people jumped out of the back of the vehicle and shot the two individuals. “This community deserves the right to live peacefully, just as any person would in their respective communities,” Smith told reporters at the scene.Gift this article
