New surveillance photos show suspect accused of using fire extinguisher in DC robberies
WASHINGTON – The Metropolitan Police Department has released new surveillance images of a suspect believed to be responsible for a series of convenience store robberies using a fire extinguisher.
The most recent incident occurred at a 7-Eleven in the 3000 block of 14th Street NW on Tuesday around noon.
According to the detectives, the suspect entered the store, sprayed employees with a fire extinguisher, stole the cash register, and left.
Authorities state that the same individual previously robbed a convenience store in the 1700 block of Columbia Road Northwest last Thursday morning, using a fire extinguisher to assault employees and steal the cash register.
Surveillance footage from a robbery the previous Wednesday morning at a convenience store in the 5200 block of 3rd Street Northeast shows the suspect without a mask, as well.
Residents are urged to contact the Metropolitan Police Department if they recognize the suspect. Police are offering a reward of up to $10,000 for information leading to an arrest and conviction.

‘Strong smell’ shuts down flights at major DC-area airports for the second time this month
Check out what’s clicking on FoxBusiness.com.
A reported “strong smell” at a key air traffic control center disrupted flights Friday evening at major airports across the Washington, D.C., region for the second time in two weeks.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) temporarily halted flights at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA), Washington Dulles International Airport (IAD), Baltimore/Washington International Airport (BWI), Charlottesville–Albemarle Airport (CHO) and Richmond International Airport (RIC), the agency told FOX Business in an email.
The FAA said the disruptions were due to a “strong smell” at the Potomac Terminal Radar Approach Control (TRACON) center, which manages airspace in the region.

It was not immediately clear what caused the smell.
Ground stops at Dulles, Reagan National and BWI remained in effect until around 8 p.m. ET before being lifted, according to the FAA’s website.

As of 8:30 p.m., Reagan National was experiencing ground delays, while BWI continued to see departure delays.
Earlier this month, a ground stop was similarly issued at several airports in the Washington, D.C., region after a chemical odor was detected at the TRACON center.
