An "unauthorized" music festival. Gunfire erupted on a street corner as crowds began to disperse from the "advocacy" festival called Moechella — which officers had shut down moments earlier over dangerous conditions. Moechella, just like Coachella, but with shootings and death The event was advertised as a peaceful demonstration at 14th and U Street celebrating Juneteenth, but police described a chaotic scene where several illegal guns were recovered over the course of two-and-a-half hours. "Vibrant and Diverse" "When you have large gatherings in a dense area, all it takes is one person introducing a gun to the situation that makes it deadly," Metropolitan Police Department Chief Robert Contee said. "In this case, unfortunately a 15-year-old lost his life." The teenager was killed, while the officer was shot in his lower extremity and is being treated at an area hospital.
