At least five people were injured after a shooting Thursday morning in the Logan Circle neighborhood, according to D.C. police.
A police spokesperson said officers were “working an active barricade at this time” near the shooting, which took place not far from the intersection of 15th and P streets NW. The suspected attacker was believed to be barricaded in a nearby apartment building, according to a federal law enforcement official.
The shooting prompted lockdowns in the surrounding area, drew a flood of federal and local law enforcement officials and blocked off a wide swath of the neighborhood. People barricaded in nearby homes and businesses, while schools in the area prohibited people from entering or leaving but proceeded with normal activities.
Local officials are expected to provide additional details about the shooting later this morning.
