"D.C. police arrested and charged a 16-year-old in connection with a series of bomb threats that brought activity to a standstill at several public and public charter schools in the city, authorities said Thursday. Students, teachers and staff across the District were evacuated from school grounds Wednesday afternoon when bomb threats were issued to at least eight schools, including Paul Laurence Dunbar, Roosevelt and Ron Brown high schools. Those threats came a day after another threat interrupted a visit by second gentleman Doug Emhoff at Dunbar High School in Northwest and in the wake of similar threats made earlier this month at several historically Black colleges and universities in the District and around the country. The Metropolitan Police Department didn’t specify whether the youth in custody had any connection to the initial Dunbar incident."

"The U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency launched a new initiative this week to combat drug-related violent crime and overdose deaths in 34 major cities across 23 states. Known as Operation Overdrive, this initiative intends to attack the criminal drug supply chain and associated violence as a means of preventing overdose deaths. Many criminal drug networks now in operation, according to the data based on national crime statistics and data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, now rely on fentanyl or methamphetamine for their sales, and with their spread often come violent gun crimes.
Beginning this month, Operation Overdrive will target criminal drug networks from Atlanta and Chicago to St. Louis and Washington, D.C. To do so, the DEA will work alongside federal, state, and local law enforcement partners, focusing on areas with the highest rates of violent crime and drug overdoses."
