A reporter with The Epoch Times’ sister media outlet was robbed at gunpoint on Jan. 28 right outside her apartment complex in Washington, D.C., raising concerns about the area’s rising crime rate as well as questions about whether the robbery was more than a random act.

“Give me your phone,” was the first thing that Iris Tao, a White House reporter for NTD, heard right as she stepped outside the apartment complex.
