Fight At Arlington Intersection Leads To Injuries, Broken Glasses

ARLINGTON, VA — Arlington County Police are investigating a dispute between two men at an intersection near National Airport on Tuesday that left one of the participants with injuries and broken glasses.

Officers responded around 2:55 p.m., to the 3600 block of S. Glebe Road, for the report of a robbery by force, according to police.

A preliminary investigation revealed that two men who were driving their vehicles began to argue at the intersection of Crystal Drive and Potomac Avenue.
