Here's some news you don't read every day: the owner of Anacostia restaurant Uniontown Bar and Grill has been charged in a federal drug-trafficking case that involves 65 kilograms of cocaine. The Washington Post reports that Natasha Dasher "was confronted late last month by federal drug agents who had followed a tractor-trailer carrying the cocaine, about 140 pounds of it, to Fort Washington." The restaurant — which was hailed when it opened in February as part of an effort to revitalize the neighborhood — remains open. [WaPo]
