Readers have reported hearing gunshots around 11:30 pm Sunday. I wrote to the Metropolitan Police Department's
1D mailing list (on Yahoo) and received two replies, first from MPD's Nicholas Gallucci: "An unidentified male fired several shots in the area of half and m street sw. No one was injured and nothing was struck. However, if anyone saw this incident and or has any information regarding the male, please contact the police asap."
Then, 1D Commander David Kamperin added some detail: "We had an individual fire shots at a police officer - the officer took cover. No injuries and the subject is still out and wanted. Anyone with information please call 202-727-9099."
