Police arrested two teenage suspects Saturday in connection with a daytime shooting just outside Union Station in Washington, D.C., that left a 15-year-old boy wounded.

A 17-year-old juvenile male from Northeast D.C. and a 16-year-old juvenile male from Southeast D.C. were charged with assault with a dangerous weapon, police said.

The shooting occurred along Massachusetts Avenue NE near North Capitol Street — a major corridor close to the U.S. Capitol and Union Station that falls within the broader Capitol security footprint and regularly sees federal law enforcement activity.

“A 15-year-old juvenile male was located conscious and breathing suffering from a gunshot wound,” MPD said in a statement.
