    Another mugging in Northwest DC. 13th and Kennedy Streets. Around 6pm. It’s believed these are the same teenagers who’ve been terrorizing the neighborhood for weeks. We’re told the man’s wallet and cell phone were stolen and he was clearly assaulted. @fox5dc @DCPoliceDept

    This is Josh Snyder’s parking spot at Northwest HS. The 17 yr old senior was killed Wednesday afternoon when his car veered into the left shoulder of I-270 and struck a disabled box truck. @NorthwestJags says Josh was kind and hard working, wants friends to celebrate his life.

    Prosecutor says in text message 2 days before killing, Freeman asked an acquaintance “where are the sweet licks?” an apparent reference to looking for targets to rob. And Freeman allegedly texted somebody about buying a 9mm handgun days before Bradley Brown’s murder. @fox5dc
