    D.C. police released photos Thursday of the suspects involved in a shooting that wounded two young children as they stepped off a Metrobus in Northwest D.C. on Wednesday afternoon.

    A Route 54 bus was going north on 14th Street NW in the Brightwood neighborhood about 4 p.m., when D.C. police say 32-year-old Stephen Perdomo and some other men got onto the bus. Then, Perdomo attacked and stabbed a man during a confrontation, police said.

    The assault spilled onto the street, where a suspect pulled out a gun and fired it, striking a 6-year-old girl and a 9-year-old boy who had just gotten off, as well as Perdomo.

    "A lot of our neighbors don’t want to ride public transportation. They don’t feel safe. They don’t feel safe with their children, walking throughout the neighborhood," Advisory Neighborhood Commissioner Kim Patterson said Thursday. "We really want to see policemen back on their bicycles and walking."


    Which reminds me of a song...

    "we" need to get back to being hard on crime. seems every single day we hear of violent criminals out on bail or early release, doing more violent crime. sure, we should do what we can to help folks avoid a life of crime, but once they commit violent crime, they need to be put and left in jail. we as a country have enough crap going on to not pander to the proven criminals.

    More like Silver Spring South.
    Maybe but with all the rich folks they hold little more sway the closer things like that get to georgetown and other affluent areas along Wisconsin Ave and Connecticut Ave.
