[quote]Describing the first shooting scene, near Mount Vernon Square, a woman who walked by moments after the attack, still in daylight, said she saw the victim, in a dress shirt and sweater, sprawled on the pavement with one foot still in the passenger’s side of a car. His right hand was twitching as blood pooled around his head.

The witness, Yolanda Douglas, 39, said a woman ran out of a K Street office building, screaming, “Oh, my God, that’s my husband.” Douglas said the woman ran toward her husband and grabbed his hand. “What happened?” she asked, but he did not respond.[/quote][/quote]

Absolutely horrific.

I couldn’t help but also read the “Carjacking tips by police”, and other than 2-3 obvious and reasonable tips (“be aware of your surroundings”, “park in well lit areas”), they are a bunch of nonsense (“always drive in the center lane”?! “Don’t sit in an idling car” - dont stop at a traffic light will be next!   “don’t drive alone” “give up your car”)[/quote]
