#Breaking Popular D.C. gay nightclub, Town 2.0, is approved to reopen inside of a former church building in NoMa.

The District’s Alcohol Beverage Control Board approved the club’s license with conditions that would contribute to maintaining order in neighborhood @wusa9 #GetUpDC Image
The conditions of Town 2.0’s license approval include:

1. Hiring at least two police officers on Fridays and Saturdays from at least midnight to closing

2. Making sure line to get in runs south towards K Street

(see more in threat) @wusa9 #GetUpDC
Town 2.0’s license conditions continued:

3. Ensuring sounds can’t be heard in the apartment bldg next door or from public space

4. All exterior seating areas must be shut down at 2:00 a.m.

@wusa9 #GetUpDC
In November last year, several groups tried to block Town 2.0 @WhatsUpAtTown from opening inside of the former church on North Capitol Street.

However, the arguments did not hold up with DC’s Alcohol Beverage Control Board. The club’s license has been approved @wusa9 #GetUpDC
The official order granting Town 2.0’s license to open is 13 pages long, but here is the part that grants the club its license and outlines the conditions the owners must follow. #receipts @wusa9 @WhatsUpAtTown #GetUpDC ImageImage
There are a few things that can happen from here:

Opponents can challenge the ABC Board’s decision, but it must be done within 10 days.

There are also some additional steps on the licensing side in order for the license app to move from approval to issuance. @wusa9 #GetUpDC

MAN SHOT NEAR WHITE HOUSE | According to the Secret Service, a 51-year-old guy walked up to an officer at 17th and Pennsylvania and said he had a weapon.

The agency said the man allegedly ran toward officer and took something out in a drawing motion. @wusa9 #GetUpDC (thread) Image
The Secret Service said the man got into a “shooter’s stance” as if he were about to fire a weapon.

It was at that point the officer shot the man in his torso. The officer and the man who they shot were taken to area hospitals @wusa9 #GetUpDC Image
The Secret Service came into a press briefing and rushed President Donald Trump out of the room after the shooting happened just before 6p.

President Trump came back about 10 minutes later and said there was a shooting and that things seemed to be under control @wusa9 #GetUpDC

CHILD SHOT IN DC: @DCPoliceDept confirms a child was shot at 53rd and East Capitol Street in Northeast DC around 12:30a this morning.

The child was rushed to the hospital, but it is unclear how serious the injuries are. No suspect is in custody. @wusa9 #GetUpDC #BREAKING Image
A crime check within a quarter-mile radius of where this child was shot revealed a slight increase in violent crimes involving a gun when compared to this same time last year.

However, overall violent crimes in that area remained about the same @wusa9 #GetUpDC ImageImage
This shooting comes at a time where police are dealing with a 20% increase in homicides when compared to to this same time last year.

Thankfully, the child shot in this latest case survived and is in hospital. We’re still working to learn how badly they were hurt @wusa9 #GetUpDC Image

BLACK LIVES MATTER: DC transforms part of 16th Street near the @WhiteHouse into Black Lives Matter Plaza.

Artists painted a massive BLM mural between H and K Streets in response to #GeorgeFloyd and #PoliceBrutality protests @wusa9 @MayorBowser #GetUpDC #BlackLivesMatter
My colleague @KolbieReports captured @DCDPW hanging this sign along the street this morning. Head to her page for more images and videos. @wusa9 #GetUpDC Image
Hot Take: @DMVBlackLives is not here for it.

The social justice organization is calling the mural and street renaming “performative” and “a distraction” as they push for @MayorBowser to decrease the @DCPoliceDept budget. @wusa9 #GetUpDC #GeorgeFloyd #BlackLivesMatter Image
