August 20, 2024

WASHINGTON, D.C. — A suspect in an aggravated assault that occurred last month in Northwest Washington remains at large as investigators seek the public’s help in identifying the individual.

The incident took place in the early morning hours of July 13, when a large group attacked three victims in the 1100 block of U Street, Northwest. The assault only stopped when bystanders intervened, allowing the victims to escape. All three were taken to a local hospital by D.C. Fire and EMS for treatment.

A surveillance camera captured one of the suspects involved in the assault, and police have released the image in hopes of obtaining more information.
