NW DC Neighborhood Site of Easter Weekend Attacks
A man visiting from Vietnam to see family members in Columbia Heights was attacked by robbers on the street Saturday afternoon, and the incident was repeated on Easter Sunday with another victim.
The man said he was walking along Hiatt Place around 4 p.m. Saturday when he passed by four people. He said he didn’t think about them until they hit him in the back and knocked him down.
He said he didn’t remember much after that and had little memory of making it back to his family’s business nearby. He was left bruised and bloodied from the attack but was recovering.
The next day, another man was attacked in a similar fashion during broad daylight in the same area. People who frequent the neighborhood were taken aback by the violent nature of the incidents.
