WASHINGTON — Police are investigating after thieves got away with thousands of dollars worth of clothing from a Lululemon store in Northwest D.C.
According to a police report from the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD), the burglary happened on Monday at the store in the 1900 block of 14th Street just before 6:30 a.m.
