D.C. police detectives say someone drove in a Jeep Grand Cherokee, began firing, and drove away shortly before noon Thursday in the 1300 block of Half Street Southwest, near Nats Park.

Surveillance cameras captured the suspect's jeep – which police say was stolen in an armed carjacking on Kansas and Blair Streets in Northeast D.C. on Wednesday.
