# Four Shot in Washington DC Logan Circle Neighborhood

*Police responded to multiple locations in the Logan Circle area, urging people to avoid the scene.*

**Scores for the source reporting** (0-100, assessing the original journalism this article was written from, not this write-up): 

- Trust 48 of 100, higher is better. Central claim attributed to police, but no named sources or documents cited.
- Craft 45 of 100, higher is better. Reporting is clear and holds together, but lacks quotes from affected parties or details on next steps.
- Hype 65 of 100, lower is better. Headlines promise an active shooter, but the body of reporting focuses on the number of people shot.

**The short version**

- Four people were shot in Washington D.C.'s Logan Circle neighborhood.
- The shootings occurred within walking distance of the White House.
- Police urged the public to avoid the area of 15th Street and P Street.
- Federal agents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives were sent to assist.

Four people were shot in Washington D.C.'s Logan Circle neighborhood early Thursday. Police responded to multiple locations in the area, which is located about a mile north of the White House. Authorities urged people to avoid the intersection of 15th Street and P Street. Schools near the scene were placed on lockdown.

The federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives sent agents to the scene to assist local police. Much of the block where the incident occurred was cordoned off, and streets around the area were also blocked. This is a breaking news story, with more details expected.

## Disagreement on exact location

While police urged people to avoid the area of 15th Street and P Street, CTV News reported that the exact location was not immediately available, according to police officer Nathan Clarke. Other reports did not specify details about the exact location beyond the general neighborhood.

## What the coverage left out

None of the left-rated digests mention the specific details about the VIDA fitness centre, St. Luke’s Episcopal Church, or the Whole Foods supermarket located near the scene, as reported by CTV News. None of the centre-rated digests mention these specific landmarks. The single right-rated digest also does not mention these specific locations.

## Who covered it
