Two teenage suspects were arrested Saturday in connection with a daytime shooting near Washington D.C.'s Union Station that left a 15-year-old boy wounded, according to police. The shooting occurred Friday along Massachusetts Avenue NE near North Capitol Street, a major corridor close to the U.S. Capitol. Meanwhile, Russia plans to interrogate two suspects in the attempted assassination of a top military intelligence official in Moscow, and talks between the U.S. and Iran on the latter's nuclear program yielded a framework for future discussions.
Police charged a 17-year-old juvenile male from Northeast D.C. and a 16-year-old juvenile male from Southeast D.C. with assault with a dangerous weapon, according to Fox News. The shooting, which occurred near Union Station, prompted an investigation by local police and assistance from federal authorities.
In Moscow, Lt. Gen. Vladimir Alekseyev was shot at an apartment building and hospitalized, according to The Associated Press, as reported by Fox News. The Russian newspaper Kommersant reported that the two suspects in the shooting "will soon be interrogated," citing a source close to the investigation. After questioning, the suspects are expected to be charged.
On the diplomatic front, talks on Iran's nuclear program between the United States and Iran on Friday in Oman were successful, in that they did not end in either acrimony or airstrikes, according to the NY Times. Talks are expected to continue soon on what the foreign minister of Iran, Abbas Araghchi, called a framework for future talks. "It was a good start," he told Iranian media. "We agreed."
