WASHINGTON - D.C. Police say a teenage boy was stabbed inside the National Zoo in Northwest.

Sources tell FOX 5's Wisdom Martin that a 14-year-old male was stabbed in the chest in the zoo after being jumped by another group of young people.

...

In a statement, the National Zoo says they have a person in Zoo police custody and that individual will be turned over to D.C. Police.

Easter Monday is traditionally African American Family Day at the National Zoo. Easter Monday has been a Washington-area multicultural tradition that spans more than 100 years. In 2000, there was a multiple shooting at the zoo during the same event.

A witness tells FOX 5 the scene was chaotic as police evacuated the zoo. She says people were stumbling over each other as they ran from the zoo.

What happens if I come to town & want to visit the zoo that day? Because I am white they won't let me in? If that is the case then I see lawsuits in the future. I see no need to have special days for different races. I can understand a day for people/children with disabilities.

Maybe if the africans acted a little more like Americans we wouldn’t be reading this stuff!

I think there is like 1 maybe 3 rednecks in DC. Even rednecks are smart enough to know when to get out of an area that should be nuked and rebuilt...

One and the same. I left my office, which is a block South of the Zoo, at 3:50, which put me at the zoo just before 4:00.
