At least three people were shot Friday in Washington D.C., prompting a heavy police response, authorities said.

The Metropolitan Police Department said it received reports of shots fired in the 4100 block of Connecticut Avenue NW. Social media users reported hearing heavy gunfire in the area. Fox News Digital obtained video from a nearby resident who captured sounds of the gunfire.

On one hand...it's ridiculous that the entire local programming has been preempted.  Even the news is gone.

Wall to wall coverage.  Seems witnesses are claiming that automatic weapons were fired.

Couldn't help but wonder that if had happened in the "Black" side of town, if the coverage would be the same.

Semi auto, likely 30 round magazines, (already illegal in MD, likely DC also).

Just the sort of firearm the grabbers want to ban.

Hard to tell what, if anything in particular, they were shooting at.

IOW, this stinks on ice.

If you’re wondering who that is, that’s Yakub, the ancient scientist who invented the pyramids and white people.

Nation of Islam?

Well, now, this story will disappear from the news cycle fast, if they can't lighten up the shooter and claim he was one of those MAGA white supremacists...
