I noticed the Kenwood neighborhood private security was patrolling last night with police-like emergency lights on. Perhaps stepping up visibility in the wake of the assault in Kenwood?

The assault at 7500 Woodmont must be The Chase at Bethesda condominium. I saw three police cars parked at the entrance with an investigation underway the night of the assault.
