Arrests made in string of robberies of nearby establishments

Last week, MPD announced the arrest of two individuals in relation to a string of robberies of several establishments around the city. A few nearby establishments were targets of this robbery spree earlier this year, including the minimart on South Dakota Avenue NE, Five Guys on Riggs Road NE, and Takoma Liquors on Eastern Avenue NE.

Original post

Hellbender has been closed for the past couple of weeks. On Hellbender’s facebook page, owner Ben Evans shared an update about what is going on with trying to get their license reinstated. I think they have been good neighbors in this community so I am hoping for the best.
