It is entirely possible the MOU has been changed again but not posted on the website. The FBI Police operate under the authority granted by the Federal Protective Service, and their MOU/MOA states they have expanded jurisdiction within 300 feet of any federal property.

Another possibility is that the vehicle committed a traffic offense that raises it above a citation into criminal territory. If that's the case, Federal Law Enforcement Officers may choose to use the Assimilative Crimes Act to stop a person or vehicle and effect an arrest for an equivalent State (or in this case District) crime and have it tried in Federal Court.

Sounds like Ethiopian food would be a perfect fit if you avoid the chicken dishes (they are often served with a whole, hard-boiled egg added in) and confirm the restaurant only uses teff (a type of millet) in their injera. I would suggest Das in Georgetown or Dukem on U Street, as many of the other popular restaurants are small mom-and-pops that might be more difficult to coordinate the special dietary needs. Note that some dishes are traditionally cooked with butter so you’ll need them to walk you through those. But it is clarified butter/ghee, in case the milk solids are the allergen.
