The Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) in Washington, D.C. informed Fox News Digital on Thursday that it has been more than a week without a homicide in the city.

“There have been no recorded homicides in the city for the past week,” stated Public Information Officer Michael Russo in an email, adding that the last known homicide occurred on August 13th.

This homicide-free period follows President Donald Trump’s federalization of the D.C. police on August 11, during a time when federal law enforcement activity surged.

Attorney General Pam Bondi announced on X Thursday morning that federal law enforcement made 53 arrests in Washington, D.C. on Wednesday, with an additional 24 arrests carried out by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

Two juveniles from Maryland were arrested in the incident, and more suspects remain at large.

Prior to this, congressional intern Eric Tarpinian-Jachym, 21, was shot on June 30 on the 1200 block of 7th Street, Northwest, and succumbed to his injuries a day later. He was a student at the University of Massachusetts – Amherst interning for Rep. Ron Estes, R-Kan.

Several people exited a vehicle and began firing shots. The Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) said Tarpinian-Jachym was not the target of the shooting. 

Nobody has been arrested in connection with that killing.
