Yep.  This first article is from 2016, but holds true more than ever today:

Lieutenant Riddle is with the Tysons Urban Team, established in 2013 to respond to the urbanization of the area. He says a consistent and growing crime is people grabbing expensive items from stores in the mall--shirts, pants, an Xbox and fleeing.

"...and simply run right out and headed towards the train," Lieutenant Riddle said.

Between 2014 and 2015, the Tysons Urban Team recorded a 58 percent increase in felonies and a 34 percent increase in misdemeanors, and the trend is continuing in 2016.

Davis said a fight began inside the mall between two D.C. gangs: the 37th Street Crew and the Simple City Crew, originally from the Benning Heights neighborhood. Police said Settles is a member of 37th Street.
