It was there that they discovered a woman who may have had a graze wound and a male who had been hurt in the shooting.
At the time, Alvaro Angel had to dodge bullets while renovating his home.
“I heard about seven or nine gunshots,” reported Angel. “[I dropped] on the floor because it’s dangerous for everybody.”
Two groups of three males who may have been shooting at each other are being sought after by the police. Georgia Avenue NW was where they were last observed traveling south.
7News saw that at least two cars had windows that had been blasted out at the scene.
Alonzo Robinson is the owner of one of the vehicles.
“My niece informed me that the windows were shot out. “Who are they,” I asked. Robinson stated, “She mentioned they started shooting about here. “I stopped over to see how my niece was doing, and she seemed to be doing well. It is regrettable that this took place. We are limited to praying.
Robinson claimed that because the shootings took place during the day, they were audacious.
You can be certain that it will occur at night if it occurred during the day. At night, you’re in big trouble,” Robinson remarked. “Your head has got to be on a swivel, just keep it real.”
