I visited my cousin who lives near Washington D.C. during the spring break. I left NY at the dawn on Thursday. On Wednesday night, my neighborhood was noisier than usual. I could hear sirening police cars and ambulances. At the early morning on Thursday, while I was heading to the subway station, I saw the yellow police line and many police officers on the street. I didn't know what it was.
Here is the news about the case of the night.

Four men died in my neighborhood because of the shootout. It was just about one minute from my apartment.

Coming back to my home at 2AM, there was no difference from the days before the murder case. New Yorkers as well as travelers were enjoying the Saturday night. |
