Traffic Fatality on Kenilworth Avenue, NE
The Metropolitan Police Department is currently investigating a single vehicle traffic fatality which occurred in the 1300 block of Kenilworth Avenue, NE.
At approximately 5:53 pm on Saturday, August 8, 2009, an adult male was reportedly operating a 2001 Ford Mustang at a high rate of speed northbound in the 1300 block of Kenilworth Avenue, NE. At that time the operator reportedly lost control of the vehicle and struck a “Jersey barrier” before coming to a rest. During the course of this accident, an adult female who was the front seat passenger was partially ejected from the vehicle.
Personnel from the DC Fire and Emergency Medical Services Department responded to the scene, but were unable to find any signs from the woman consistent with life. She was subsequently pronounced dead on the scene by a representative from the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner for the District of Columbia.
The decedent in this case has been identified as 28-year-old Diona Shaunte Anthony of the 7000 block of Independence Street in Capitol Heights, Maryland.
A subsequent investigation led to the arrest of the operator of the vehicle who has been identified as 34-year-old Erik Anthony Bingham of Hyattsville, Maryland. Mr. Bingham is currently being charged with Driving under the Influence in connection with this case. He was transported to an area hospital for treatment of apparently non-life threatening injuries.
The circumstances surrounding this traffic fatality remain under investigation by members assigned to the department’s Major Crash Investigations Unit.

DDOT TRAFFIC CONTROL OFFICERS RECEIVE TRAINING
DDOT TRAFFIC CONTROL OFFICERS RECEIVE TRAINING
TO ISSUE TRAFFIC CITATIONS
The District Department of Transportation’s (DDOT) Traffic Control Officers (TCOs) have recently completed training allowing them to issue citations for traffic infractions. In response to legislation passed by City Council and introduced by Councilmember Jim Graham, DDOT’s TCOs are able to write tickets for traffic violations such as parking in a bus or loading zone, parking in a no standing zone or double parking.
DDOT TCOs are routinely deployed to some of the District’s busiest intersections to help facilitate traffic through morning and evening rush hours and as such are in a unique position to observe real-time violations by motorists and pedestrians. TCOs ensure the public right-of-way is kept safe for all modes of transportation including bicyclists and pedestrians and may also issue citations for blocking crosswalks and bike lanes as well as for distracted driving, illegal use of cell phones, etc.
The TCOs have received 40 hours of training from the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) on the regulations and procedures for issuing traffic citations. The DC Code gives the TCOs the authority to issue citations for parking infractions and minor moving violations, including:
• Parking in a bus or loading zone
• Parking in front of a designated entrance
• Expired tags
• No standing
• No parking anytime
• Double parking
• No parking during rush hour
• Expired inspection sticker
• No stopping
• No front or rear tag
Generally, TCOs cannot write tickets for criminal violations that are not subject to
administrative traffic adjudication at the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV).
