Trash collection in the District was suspended Wednesday in response to an early morning shooting at the Department of Public Works facility in the Brentwood area of Northeast Washington.

DPW spokeswoman Nancee Lyons said trash collection will continue to operate on a holiday schedule because of Columbus Day, pushing back collection a day. She said residents most affected are those with trash collection regularly scheduled for Tuesday, which would have been on Wednesday this week. They will not receive pickup until next Tuesday.
