I have a report of an aggravated assault on the 400 block of Tredegar Street that took place about 6:30 yesterday. One male attacking another. No other info yet. Technically this did not happen in Oregon Hill, but close by, below the Virignia War Memorial.
Hopefully, crime reporting will be a topic of conversation when the new sector police leader, Lt. Baltz, meets with the Oregon Hill Neighborhood Association this coming Tuesday night.
Police emailed back.
Arides Lahera, 56, of no fixed address, swung a knife at the male vicitm. Lahera ran off and was arrested later. He has been charged with attempted malicious wounding.
I will try to get the mugshot up later.
So, sounds like a fight between homeless under the Lee Bridge.
Thanks to police for the arrest and info!
Hello Scott,
I will have details of this on Tuesday. Good job by Capitol Police as well as RPD.
That was the Federal Reserve Police not the Capitol Police that was involved in this.
