A shooting on a street in the nation's capital left three people dead and two others hospitalised Saturday night, police said. The conditions of the hospitalised victims were not immediately known. Smith asked for help from the public in collecting information about what she called a disturbing fatal shooting. “It can't rest upon the metropolitan police department to determine what works and what doesn't work." Washington experienced another mass shooting last month when nine people were wounded while celebrating Independence Day in a neighbourhood about a 20-minute drive east of the White House.
