New Crime Bill, Zebra Saga Ends, and Leaf Collection Guide

We’re joined by Axios’ Cuneyt Dil and City Cast contributor Dan Reed to talk through the D.C. mayor’s sweeping new anti-crime proposal, the latest twist in the story of the Beltway zebras, and Dan has thoughts on leaf collection. As always our roundups are powered by the great local journalism in the area: Check out Cuneyt’s reporting on the new crime bill proposed by Mayor Bowser. We also covered the uptick in store thefts on the pod with Emily Davies of the Washington Post. The Department of Public Works has this handy guide for how to handle leaf collection. The Washington Post explains the acquittal of Jerry Lee Holly, the owner of the escaped Maryland zebras. Want some more DC news?
