A National Guard member took a non-life-threatening leg wound late Sunday in Washington while intervening in a fight, and the suspected shooter was hit in the abdomen by return fire. Both went to a hospital.

Around 11:10 p.m. in the Eastern Market neighborhood of southeast Washington, troops watching from a van left the vehicle to halt a sidewalk brawl. A participant produced a firearm, opened fire, fled into an alley, and shot again after being ordered to drop the gun.
