Nothing to see here. This is not a problem

This isn't an isolated event - we are constantly worrying about our tires getting stolen overnight (happens multiple times a month), getting mugged (has happened to two neighbors in the last few months), getting carjacked (happens ALL THE TIME NOW), and now worried about getting shot by juveniles while getting carjacked. WTF is wrong with this city?

DC Police and elected officials have been very slow to respond (and some haven't responded at all).

This guy survived the Taliban but then gets shot by kids in DC. They were trying to steal his car.This was a CARJACKING ATTEMPT turned deadly. It's awful, just awful. I hope they find these kids. I hope our elected officials start punishing these criminals (I don't care how old they are, if they are brandishing a gun they should be tried as adults) and move the needle in the other direction.


I didn't even bother to register where in DC this happened... surprised about the location... so close to the Hill. Sad.


It happened in the Capitol Hill neighborhood, amongst million dollar townhomes and 10 blocks from the U.S. Capitol. People need to wake up. This wasn't a targeted crime. It was random. I think a lot of us sleep a little easier when we think about how all the crime around us is targeted - but it's not. This is too much. DC Council, wake up. Your voters are frustrated. Neighbors are already talking about voting out certain council members.


The good voters of Capitol Hill gave us Mr. Charles Allen. His fingerprints are all over the crime crisis. Please do better in the next election.


The good voters of Capitol Hill are very very frustrated with Allen. He has done a lot for our community, but the increase in violent crime is too much.

This is Allen's area! We neighbors are in disbelief that he hasn't mentioned it. I notified friends outside these blocks myself. The police haven't even mentioned (to my knowledge) that this was a carjacking attempt. No matter where you are in DC, please be careful when you are getting in and out of your car.

The whole Council is in disbelief. 10 people killed over the holiday. Total crickets from Frumin. Then he starts prattling on Twitter about some holiday commission he is leading the charge on. WTF?

This story is absolutely heartbreaking. Unfortunately, there are no easy solutions to these problems.

There are plenty of easy solutions. Starting with actually dealing with the revolving door that is DC's juvenile justice system: https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/07/07/youth-crime-dc-juvenile-justice/

You can’t unleash feral hordes in 2020 to get trump out of office and then expect the toothpaste to go back into the tube. It will get worse for another decade at least.

What is the Mayor doing about all this crime?

Yep. Amazing that nobody is talking about the tens of thousands of criminals that were released from prison in 2020-21. And, nobody saw this coming?

These are carJACKINGS. Has nothing to do with the make or model of the car when someone rolls up on you with a gun while you're at a stop light.

Maybe learn to read/comprehend before using internet terms.
