The Metropolitan Police Department is actively seeking a suspect involved in an armed robbery at a Northwest business, with the incident occurring late in the evening on November 27. According to the official police report, it was approximately 11:18 p.m. when the suspects made their entry into the establishment located at the 1600 block of 7th Street, with one of the individuals brandishing a firearm. Confronted with the grave threat, the employee present adhered to the demands for money, after which the suspects hastily departed from the premises.

The pursuit of the perpetrators has been bolstered by surveillance footage capturing one of the individuals. The authorities have since made an appeal to the public, seeking assistance in identifying the suspect shown in the video, which can be viewed on the MPD's official page. The department's request is straightforward: do not engage, but rather quickly reach out by calling at (202) 727-9099, or for an alternative, discretely text your tip to the Department's TEXT TIP LINE at 50411. 

The information that leads to an arrest and conviction in this violent incident may yield a reward—MPD has made it known that they are prepared to give up to $10,000. Metropolitan Police Department urges anyone with information to contribute to the investigation.
