The stalking incident occurred at a business on the 1600 block U Street NW about noon on Oct. 6, police said. Authorities didn’t identify the business. But surveillance footage police released today in connection with the stalking incident focuses on a man in the Starbucks at 16th and U streets NW.

The man, wearing sunglasses and a floppy hat, walked into the store and appeared to speak to someone who was off camera. The man then alternated between sitting at a table near the door and walking around the Starbucks.

Police today also distributed a video of two men wanted in connection with a robbery in a Park View business.

The robbery happened in a store on the 3000 block of Sherman Avenue NW about 8 p.m. on Oct. 14, according to authorities. Police didn’t name the business. But the video centers on two men who went into the Stop & Go Market at Sherman Avenue and Columbia Road NW.

Inside the shop, one of the men went behind the store’s counter as the other man stood nearby. The man who went behind the counter eventually returned to the shop’s customer area with something in his hand.

The pair then walked out of the store.
