WASHINGTON D.C. Transgender woman found dead after shootout: “The incident began when private security guards were called to a building in the 4200 block of Barnaby Road SE for a possible intruder about 9:45 p.m. Sunday. As they checked each of the vacant apartments, they found an armed suspect, police said. The suspect and one guard fired their weapons at each other before the suspect took off, police said. Police responded and searched the building with a K9 but couldn’t find the person. Guards believed the person had left, but on Monday, officers were called back to the building, where a transgender woman was found dead with trauma to the body.”
