At least 4 shot in trendy Washington, DC neighborhood, cops say

At least four people were shot on Thursday morning in Logan Circle, a Washington, DC neighbourhood less than a mile from the White House. The incident prompted a warning to avoid the area as police searched for a suspect.

Councilmember Brooke Pinto said the shooting happened at and outside a Vida fitness centre near 15th and P Streets Northwest. The location is about seven-tenths of a mile from the White House and near homes, St Luke’s Episcopal Church and a Whole Foods supermarket; victims’ conditions were not immediately known.
