Pepco customers in DC's DuPont Circle area are experiencing power
outages that could last through the.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
End of the month.
Speaker 3 (00:15):
So I'm sorry if that does include you. Pepco says
the twenty second Street substation began having problems on Thursday,
forcing the utility to cut power to prevent a larger outage.
Some customers in the area have experienced three outages since Thursday.

Oh my god. Yeah, not fun.

Pepco says. Cruise are working on repairs to prevent future outages.

So.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
Dozens of people are safe after heavy rains caused flash
flooding across the DC area over the weekend. First responders
across the area were kept pretty busy rescuing people from
their vehicles after they drove into flooded areas on Saturday.
Just a reminder, if there is water on the road
and it's flooded, do not drive into it because you
do not know how.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
Deep that actually is.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
Montgomery County was particularly hit hard. Reports say that more
than one hundred rescue came in in two hours, and
that is a full day's.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
Worth usually because it like the storm kind of came
out of nowhere and all of a sudden there were
flash flooded warrings and stuff.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
Crazy. Wow.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
Park police also rescued about twenty people that were trapped
in Chevy Chase Building after floodwaters trapped them inside. Local
officials said the waters rose faster than most residents had
ever seen. Yeah, and there are more storms possible later
this week, so just keep an eye on that. And
a new women's professional baseball league will be holding.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
Tryouts in DC next month.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
So hundreds of players have already registered to be part
of the first women's professional league tryout in more than
eighty years, which is really cool. So tryouts start on
August twenty second at the Nationals Youth Baseball Academy in
Southeast DC. The tryouts will end at NAT's Park on
August twenty fifth, and those who get a callback will
take part in the.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
League's first draft in October.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
I was like, that's so cool. So the league expects
to begin playing next year with six teams.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
I'm ros.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
Those are the three things you need to.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
Know for the day. Thank you, ros, You're welcome. We
should definitely try out. Yeah, can you reach out to
them and see if we can go to the trouts,
because we try to do you understand that it's more
so just to shine some light on it and see
how we sack up against the competition. That's true. There
were I don't know if I can even tell this story.
We tried to send Eric to trouts for dance teams
or very sports teams in the area, and they were
(02:19):
very offended by it. And I was like, first of all,
the boy is.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Moves, but also like, it's not just the dance teams
were not just for checks.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
So it's like, you don't even know that's our summer project.
We're gonna trap our baseball team be very exciting. I
enjoy rich people problems because it's just like sometimes rich
people problems are so crazy you wouldn't even think they exist.
It's like, oh, like, you know, the my favorite leather
my private jet, they don't make that leather anymore. That's
(02:47):
you mean, like the animal doesn't exist? What do you
what do you mean? Nantucket man accused of chopping down
neighbors trees to get better view of the ocean at
something that we will never any time have to think
about that. Yeah, we're going to afford that chopping down
tree even couldn't afford that. So this guy was charged
with faenony, vandalism, trespassing, unlawful destruction of trees.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
Well, I mean, if it's not your tree, and you
bought your property knowing that there's a neighbor that's going
to have a tree with, yeah, walk in the view.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
If it's not like a safety concern.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
I know. So the guy's names Janthan Jacobe. He's accused
of ordering the removal of sixteen trees. Thank god, sixteen.
That's a whole family.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
My guy was like the other people is downtown or
something like, Well, he was saying that he claims that
he had their permission. They're saying, I would never chop
down somebody else's tree without like an actual like like document,
Like there's just no way.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
It's also odd that like, yeah, why would I chop
down my neighbor's tree.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
They say that they'll do it. I mean, if you're
the one keeps some planning and they're like yes, they're
like okay, you can do it.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
I don't.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
Also, you shouldn't just be chopping down random trees, like
for no reason.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
Well there, so the couple is suing for one point
four million dollars. Allegedly they no longer live in the house.
They live in assisted living facility. So he did it
knowing that they weren't. They couldn't do anything. So he
told investigators he chopped down the trees with their permission.
They're saying, nah, he's saying he did to enhance the
(04:20):
ocean view from his own residence.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Yeah, because he's selfish, they definitely should win. And if
they don't, because they're elderly and they're like, oh, we
don't know, you're in a no, shut up.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
And here's where it gets again, you know, even worse,
so to speak. Cord to the Boston Globe, he listed
his home from nearly ten million dollars last year, but
with drew the listening in December. Put the home back
on the market in May with a revised descriptions, saying
it had quote sweeping views of the Atlantic Ocean. WHOA,
there we go, my guy. How do you take me out? Homie? Yeah?
(04:50):
I mean, like you know, I would make him replant
those trees. Yeah, sorry, Like, yeah, you now.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Have to put new trees up, and I feel like
if you're that close to the water and Nantucket there's
you probably have to have an actual you know, you
have to probably get something from the county to be
able to top these trees down, just like or an
internal county. You have to get a permit for every
little thing.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
You do in the water. This Masurius went around it.
So the criminal court case except for September. I would
imagine hopefully it's not a Jerry case, because what Jerry
would be like, you want to know what, Yeah, I
sympathize with this guy. Yeah, there's no way, ain't no way.
