Washington D.C. Shooting: Multiple Victims, At Least One Dead

Updated

9 Shot in SE Washington, 3 Dead, DC; Officers Hurt in Chase

Nine people were shot and three people were killed in what appears to have been two drive-by shootings in Southeast D.C. on Tuesday night. Four officers were also hurt when they crashed their cruisers as they chased the suspects into Prince George's County.

Police believe the situation began with one shooting on Galveston Street SW, where an 18-year-old man was said to have been shot. According to police, his injuries were non-life threatening.

Then, police say the second shooting involved multiple victims and took place at Brandywine and S. Capitol Streets SE. Police say that's where eight people were said to have been shot.

According to a D.C. Police official, three people died as a result of their injuries.

Police say both shootings appear to have been drive-by shootings. Police tell FOX 5 three suspects are in custody, but no other details were given.

Alot of casualties and officers hurt

Twitter appears to have shut down tweets about this situation.

New World Order is trying to beat April 5th deadline.

Anyone think this is related to the blackout?

EDIT: maybe they killed someone during the blackout, and staged the gang shooting to hide the body amongst the victims.

The AK-47 is so easy to get it's almost funny. Almost.
Hell, I've got one, a legitimate one at that.
