WASHINGTON — Two men were shot and injured in Northwest D.C. early Monday morning, D.C. police said.
The shooting happened on the 700 block of T Street around 12:25 a.m., police said.
Officers went to the scene of the shooting after hearing gunshot sounds in the area. They located a man with a gunshot wound to the torso at the location, police said.
The man was taken to a local hospital for treatment.
Moments later, a second man walked into a nearby hospital seeking treatment for a gunshot wound to the leg.
Police believe the two shooting victims were injured in the same incident.
Police ask anyone with information on the shooting to call 202-727-9099.
In a separate incident, a 17-year-old was killed and 20 others were injured in a mass shooting at a Southeast D.C. block party Sunday.
The shooting happened around 12:30 a.m., near the 3300 block of Dubois Place in Southeast, with multiple detectives and forensic squads still on the scene into Sunday morning.
One of the shooting victims includes an off-duty 1st District Police officer who is currently struggling for her life, D.C. police said.
The family of 17-year-old Christopher Brown said they just want the killings to come to an end.
"You need to stop because you took away something that belonged to me, somebody hat I loved so much and somebody dear to me," Grandmother Patrice Brown told WUSA9 in a phone call hours after the shooting.
D.C. police confirmed that they are currently looking for multiple shooters.
