WP: Muggings in DC Neighborhoods

The Post looks at muggings in DC & finds neighborhoods with thriving nightlife & lots of activity are among those with the biggest mugging problems. Columbia Heights tops the list.

Here's the gist (but read the article, it's worth it):

The Washington Post analyzed years of police statistics, focusing sharply on crimes this year, and found the biggest share of robberies happening at night and on sidewalks in neighborhoods north of downtown, including Adams Morgan, Mount Pleasant, Columbia Heights and the U Street corridor.

1st District, had the 2nd highest robbery numbers & a very unsettling string of (around) robberies involving the victim being knocked unconscious.
