As Vice President JD Vance staged a lunch to thank the National Guard members that President Donald Trump has deployed to Washington, DC, he was frequently drowned out by protesters.

The crash happened on 8th Street and North Carolina Avenue Southeast around 6 a.m. Wednesday. One person was trapped in the car, and DC Fire had to extract them. Spokesperson Vito Maggiolo confirmed that one of the vehicles involved is a military vehicle.

National Guard members and federal law enforcement officers are patrolling the city as part of President Trump's effort to assert federal control over policing in the District.

Fear in the streets. Buildings burning. Law enforcement struggling to tamp down violence and bring chaos under control.
