D.C. Police Chief Cathy Lanier canceled plans to assign homicide detectives to foot patrols during the All Hands on Deck initiative this weekend, and at least one homicide was solved, sources have told The Examiner.
Police sources said that all homicide investigators who were originally assigned to put on their uniforms Friday and Saturday to distribute fliers in Northwest Washington were instead told to show up in plainclothes and work their cases, including two fatal shootings that occurred Monday night.
