Juvenile is shot near a D.C. police station Juvenile is shot near a D.C. police station
(about 4 hours later)
A juvenile was shot and wounded Monday afternoon on a street just behind a D.C. police station in Southeast Washington, according to a department spokesman. A Prince George’s County police officer was suspended over the weekend after he was charged with two counts of second-degree assault in a domestic-related incident, authorities said.
The victim was reported to be conscious and breathing; his age was not immediately available. Police were called to a home on Rose View Court in Upper Marlboro on Feb. 26, when the mother of Officer Bashua Olaseha’s 7-month-old son alleged that he tried to take the child from her home without permission, according to charging documents.
Police said the shooting occurred outside about 3:15 p.m. in the 3100 block of Knox Terrace SE, just off Alabama Avenue and steps from the 7th District police station. Olaseha, who was off duty at the time, put the child in his car and tried to leave, charging documents state.
— Peter Hermann Olaseha, 29, punched the woman in the stomach before she was able to remove the child from the car, court documents state. As the woman fled, carrying the boy in her arms, Olaseha pushed her, and the mother and child fell to the ground, police said.
An ATV driver was critically injured Monday after colliding with another vehicle in the Darnestown area of Montgomery County, police officials said. The woman was taken to the hospital for cuts and bruises and was later released. She had filed a protective order against Olaseha the day before.
Collision Reconstruction Unit officers were called to investigate the crash on Darnestown Road where police found a man with critical injuries just after 3 p.m., officials said. Authorities shut down Darnestown Road between White’s Ferry and Sugarland roads as they investigated. — Lynh Bui

Virginia state Sen. A. Donald McEachin (D-Henrico) has filed paperwork to run for Congress, hoping to take the seat held by Rep. J. Randy Forbes (R). Former Virginia governor Robert F. McDonnell (R) and his attorneys formally asked the Supreme Court on Monday to overturn his conviction on corruption charges, asserting that he never exchanged “official acts” for what were otherwise lawful gifts.
A federal court, having ruled that Virginia’s current congressional map unconstitutionally packed black voters into one district, imposed a new map that made Forbes’s constituency far more African American and Democratic. Forbes decided not to contest the new seat, instead aiming to replace retiring Rep. Scott Rigell (R) in the coastal 2nd District. The Supreme Court agreed in January to hear McDonnell’s appeal, and the brief was filed in advance of oral arguments. McDonnell and his wife were convicted in 2014, after being accused of intervening with state officials in exchange for $177,000 in loans, vacations and luxury goods.
McEachin, an African American lawyer from Richmond, chairs the Democratic caucus in the state Senate. The brief said the governor’s acts “were limited to the most routine political activities” and argued that he was the first public official ever convicted despite “never agreeing to put a thumb on the scales of any government decision.” The prosecution theory “made every public official vulnerable to prosecution,” McDonnell’s brief contended.
— Rachel Weiner In gaining a conviction, the brief asserted, prosecutors persuaded lower courts to “disregard every relevant constitutional principle, and stretch the corruption laws beyond recognition.”
