I don’t usually write about crime, but this is unusual and just happened — a friend snapped this picture at the Wells Fargo at 3325 14th Street NW, and a policeman there told her it was an attempted bank robbery. Via Twitter, MPD said there was a black male suspect running west down Monroe Street NW, though their block number on 14th Street must be wrong.
Robbery Investigation: 1300 blk of 14th St NW LOF B/M, all black clothing, sunglasses & a wool cap/ L/S running W/B 1400 blk of MonroeStNW

Pretty strange — it’s the first time I’ve heard of this in the neighborhood.
