Eleven people were injured in a drive-by shooting in northwest D.C. early Monday.
Authorities say someone in an older blue BMW opened fire on a crowd of people outside an apartment building in the 1200 block of N. Capitol Street around 2 a.m.
The majority of victims are being treated for shooting-related injuries, which include both gunshot wounds and grazes, said Metropolitan Police Chief Cathy Lanier.

The most serious injury was in a man who was shot in the back. All victims are expected to survive, reported News4’s Megan McGrath.

It's also possible some victims were injured by flying glass from a shattered bus shelter or by something else.

Police said the crime scheme was chaotic, and they are still investigating. Authorities had to wait until the sun rose to finish laying down evidence markers to record where bullets and fragments landed in a crime scene that stretches nearly a block.

McGrath reported that at least 32 markers have been placed on the street.
N. Capitol Street, the unit block of M Street NW, and the southbound ramp from New York Avenue were closed as investigators worked.

Sounds a lot like the NY shootings a few months back in front of the Empire State Bldg. Oh, wati...that one was the cops. They're the only ones who should have guns because of the rigorous training they go through.

And your point is?

And your point is?

That the person that wrote the article did not write it well?

That would be a reflection on the editor as much as the writer.

I have low expectations for most things I read online. I posted this article mainly for the content, not the literary value.

Cool! Proves out that the only people safe in Gun Free or Safe Zones are criminals. Obviously they are the safest, everyone got shot but them.

I thought guns were banned in DC?

11 wounded in front of an apartment building at 2AM in DC. Statistically, one or more of the people injured is likely to have some type of criminal record.

No one in DC is safe while Congress is in session.

Point ceded.
