Secret Service Agents Open Fire After Three People Attempt to Break Into Unmarked Vehicle in Washington, D.C.

The Secret Service has confirmed that agents protecting President Joe Biden’s granddaughter opened fire after three people attempted to break into an unmarked Secret Service vehicle in Washington, D.C. on Sunday night.

According to a statement from the Secret Service, the agents, assigned to protect Naomi Biden, were out with her in the Georgetown neighborhood late Sunday night when they observed three people breaking the window of a parked and unoccupied government vehicle. In response, one of the agents opened fire, but no one was struck by the shots.

The Secret Service also noted that there was no threat to any protectees and that the incident is being investigated by the D.C. Metropolitan Police Department and the Secret Service. Naomi Biden was not with the agents when the incident occurred.

The Secret Service is the federal agency responsible for protecting the president and other high-ranking government officials. The agency has been in the spotlight in recent months due to its role in protecting President Biden and his family.

The Secret Service has not released any further information about the incident, and it is unclear what the three people were attempting to do. It is also unclear if any of the individuals involved were apprehended or charged.
