(Updated at 4 p.m. on July 9) Alexandria Police are investigating a shots fired incident in the Braddock neighborhood last night that left a man hospitalized.

The incident occurred sometime after 9 p.m. last night (Tuesday). Police said a man was transported to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

“During the incident, one male sustained non-life-threatening injuries to his lower body and later was transported to the hospital,” Alexandria Police said in a release. “The cause of the incident is still under investigation.”

The shooting comes almost exactly one month after another shooting two blocks away that left a man seriously injured. Another man was shot and injured nearby in December, and there were additional shots fired calls around that time.

Anyone with information on the incident is asked to contact APD Detective Stephen Riley at 703-746-6225 or [email protected]. Calls can also be made to the non-emergency line at 703-746-4444. Callers can remain anonymous.

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!

The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!

What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
