WASHINGTON — DC Police are asking for the public’s help identifying a man believed to have shot at two people in Northeast Friday evening.
According to police, officers responded around 7:14 p.m. Friday to the 600 block of Division Avenue NE on a report of a shooting. The address is located in the northeast corner of the Lincoln Heights neighborhood across the street from Marvin Gaye Park and near the intersection of Nannie Helen Burroughs Avenue NE and Division Avenue NE.
