Woman Robbed on H Street Corridor, Man Caught Later in Taxi

A woman was robbed along the H Street corridor yesterday about 4:15 p.m.

The woman reported that a man robbed her near the intersection of H and 14th streets NE and then fled in a taxi, according to an email from Metropolitan Police Department First District Lieutenant Joseph Cullen.

The man was located in a taxi on Florida Avenue NE and placed under arrest.

There has been very little crime in the Capitol Hill area since winter storm Jonas blanketed the area with snow over the weekend.
