Not sure how this happened, Wash. D.C. is a socialist gun free zone. Someone needs to tell the thugs that.





Police arrest 5 people suspected of firing shots at Washington D.C. officers

DEVELOPING: Police arrested five people for allegedly shooting at officers in Washington, D.C., early Tuesday, officials said. No injuries were reported.

The group allegedly fired at police to avoid arrest, not as part of a targeted attack on cops, a police official told The Washington Post.

Officers in marked police cruisers were responding to reports of gunshots just after midnight in southeast Washington, D.C., near Martin Luther King Elementary School when the cops were shot at by people inside an SUV, police spokesman Dustin Sternbeck said.

Police returned fire at the suspects, who barricaded themselves in the vehicle, Sternbeck said. Officers ordered the group to come out, but they refused.

After about 30 minutes, three women and two men in the SUV surrendered to authorities. None of the five had been publicly identified as of Tuesday morning

Thank goodness....everyone knows that rounds fired to avoid arrest hurt less.

He's on paid administrative leave, while the investigation is ongoing.
