FOX 5's Bob Barnard spoke with D.C. Police Chief Robert Contee at the scene on Alabama Avenue. "It's unacceptable in the District of Columbia for somebody to brazenly shoot into a crowd of people, and five people to be struck at 8:38 a.m. in the morning. That unacceptable. And I'm asking for the community's help to bring this person to justice."
