Police in Washington, D.C. are searching for three men accused of entering a barbershop and opening fire.

Among the 10 people inside the shop, six were shot — four men, a woman and a 5-year-old boy.

 

“They all appear to be non-life-threatening wounds,” Police Chief Peter Newsham said at a press conference across the street from the crime scene on Friday evening.

Newsham stated the 5-year-old boy, who was shot in the hand, suffered the “most serious” injury and required surgery.
As of right now, there are no known suspects or motives at this point. DC police are looking for two males wearing dark clothing and a third male in blue jeans and red shoes who entered a silver minivan and fled the location.
Anyone who can help identify the vehicle or has knowledge of the incident has been asked to call police at (202) 727-9099 or text tips to the police department’s tip line at 50411.
