Accident at Mt. Pleasant and Irving Streets NW

An anonymous reader writes in: "Passed a huge accident on Mt. P and Irving on my way home tonight. From what I could tell, a UPS truck had rammed a blue sedan, hard. The left side of the car was completely crushed and a crew was trying to extract whoever was inside as I passed. The two blocks of Irving between 16th and 17th were blocked off, and there were several fire trucks, police cars, and an ambulance on the scene. Cops were asking witnesses what they saw." Keep the possibility of street closures in this area in mind as you make your way home tonight.
