4 wounded, including 3 teens, in 2 shootings in Northwest DC

Four people, including three teens, are in the hospital after two separate shootings Monday in Northwest D.C.

The first shooting occurred at Otis Place and Warder Street — near the Parkview Recreation Center — around 11 a.m.

D.C. police said they found a teen boy who was found shot when they arrived on the scene. He was rushed to the hospital, and his condition is unknown at this time. A short time later, another teen boy showed up at the hospital with gunshot wounds.

Police said the suspects in the shooting were driving a white sedan that was captured by a nearby surveillance camera.

The second shooting happened just 30 minutes later at 14th Street and Columbia Road, only a mile away from the first crime scene. A teen boy and a man were both shot. They were taken to the hospital. There’s no word on their condition.

In that shooting, police said they are on the lookout for a black Ford Fusion with Delaware tags traveling southbound on 14th Street.

D.C. police do not believe the shootings are related.
