WASHINGTON - DC Fire officials say one person is dead, five people are in critical condition, and two people are in serious condition. Fire officials say all of the victims are in their 20s and 30s except one person who is a teen.
The shooting happened around 7:30 p.m. Tuesday in the 4000 block South Capitol St.
Police say an MPD cruiser crashed during the pursuit that followed. It happened in the 5600 block of Saint Barnabas Road.
Prince George's County Fire officials say the officers will be transported to a DC Hospital.
No word yet if suspects have been captured.
Police and medevac helicopters have also responded.
South Capitol Street is closed.
And you heard illegal guns, I’m sure. I know the liberals don’t like to hear this, but, as we debate gun control and what to do, the truth is that if guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns.
And I’m sure that the perpetrators of this shooting were in violation of numerous gun laws before they fired a shot at their victims. We can pass all the feel good laws in the world, but, the fact remains, the criminal element won’t abide by those laws anyway.
A shooting in Southeast?
Shocker...

Kinda stings...;-)
Thanks for the best laugh of the day!

Maybe they don't know about ammunition.
The local news shows here in the wdc market feature local killings/violence for the first 15 minutes (including close-ups of blood on the street and bloody bandages) every day. ...what is new?!
