The Metropolitan Police Department is investigating an alleged assault involving Florida Rep. Cory Mills, as well as probing its own response to the incident, the department confirmed Friday.
Officers were called to an apartment near The Wharf in Southwest Washington around 1:15 p.m. Wednesday on a report of an assault, according to police. But little additional information was provided.
“This is an active criminal investigation and there is no further information on the case to provide at this time,” Tom Lynch, supervisory public affairs specialist with MPD, said in an emailed statement.
