Tonight is National Night Out, an organized night out to fight crime and prevent drug use. It’s also the sixth use of All-Hands-On-Deck (AHOD) for MPD. The first five AHOD weekends resulted in nearly 2,400 arrests and seizure of $30,000 in drugs. There will be events in all seven of the MPD Police Districts, even though the release lists only six.

In addition, THEARC is putting on a concert at their location on Mississippi Ave SE, featuring Tabi Bonney and Tanya Blount.
MPD Officers will be on-duty as part of AHOD through Wednesday morning.
I live and work in the District of Columbia. I write at We Love DC, a blog I helped start, I work at Technolutionary, a company I helped start, and I’m happy doing both. I enjoy watching baseball, cooking, and gardening. I grow a mean pepper, keep a clean scorebook, and wash the dishes when I’m done. Read Why I Love DC.
