Something to think about is that there are 3 bars right on 17 and I. Two are bar/restaurants- Cafe Asia and the Bottomline, while one is a club- Eyebar. Last call in DC is around 2:30 and he was arrested a 2:45.

Just read Baxter was sentenced to 60 days in jail, and apparently he claims he fired the gun into the air.
