Secret Service agents protecting Biden's granddaughter open fire when 3 people try to break into SUV

Secret Service agents protecting President Joe Biden's granddaughter opened fire after three people tried to break into an unmarked Secret Service vehicle in the nation's capital, a law enforcement official told The Associated Press.

The agents, assigned to protect Naomi Biden, were out with her in the Georgetown neighborhood late Sunday night when they saw the three people breaking a window of the parked and unoccupied SUV, the official said. The official could not discuss details of the investigation publicly and spoke to the AP on Monday on the condition of anonymity.

One of the agents opened fire, but no one was struck by the gunfire, the Secret Service said in a statement. The three people were seen fleeing in a red car, and the Secret Service said it put out a regional bulletin to Metropolitan Police to be on the lookout for it.
Washington has seen a significant rise in the number of carjackings and car thefts this year. Police have reported more than 750 carjackings this year and more than 6,000 reports of stolen vehicles in the district. U.S. Rep. Henry Cuellar of Texas was carjacked near the Capitol last month by three armed assailants, who stole his car but didn't physically harm him.

Violent crime in Washington has also been on the rise this year, up more than 40% compared with last year. In February, U.S. Rep. Angie Craig of Minnesota was assaulted in her apartment building, suffering bruises while escaping serious injury......

============================
So no one was hit by gunfire. The Secret Service needs more gun range practice. The crime problem in Washington DC is out of control.

Reviewing what the Metropolitan Police Department asserts in its “Instructions to Trainers Concerning Law of Self-Defense,” they’re lucky they didn’t hit the suspects (or, seeing as how they missed, anyone else):

“You may use the amount of force which, at the time of the incident, you actually and reasonably believe is necessary to protect yourself (or a third person) from imminent bodily harm. This may extend to the use of deadly force if you actually and reasonably believe you are in imminent danger of death or serious bodily harm from which you can save yourself only by using deadly force against your assailant… Generally, you may not use deadly force to protect your property.”

That opens up legitimate public questioning, including:

Who fired a gun? How much experience did the agent(s) have? How many shots were fired?

What training have the agents received on the lawful use of force, and was the firing of a gun in this circumstance consistent with that training and the law?

If an investigation shows training protocols and the law were violated, will the agent(s) be subjected to discipline? If so, what is the discipline specified? If an investigation shows laws were violated, will the agent(s) be subjected to arrest and prosecution?
What would happen if an ordinary citizen had opened fire on car thieves? What is the likelihood he would not already have been arrested? Should the agent(s) be treated any differently?

Had the agent(s) “succeeded” in hitting one or more of the suspects, wounding or killing them, what is the likelihood there’d be civil unrest, not just in the District, but widespread to urban areas throughout the land? What if they’d hit someone else?

Why have no “commonsense gun safety law advocates” called for further controls to close the “Only Ones Loophole”?
Is it not the ultimate hypocrisy for those who are protected 24/7 by taxpayer-funded armed bodyguards are working 24/7 to disarm non-connected taxpayers?

So it's a-ok to open fire on someone breaking into your car...got it
 
Trust me, if the Secret Service wanted to shoot the bastards, they would have all been shot!

I believe this MAY have been a warning shot, fired into the air!

Probably just some drugged up teens that were trying to break into the SUV!

Firing a gun into the air is against the law

Warning shots are absolutely not allowed in The United States. Firing a gun in a public place is a crime, and the only thing which can make it legal is a reasonable belief in the necessity of using that gun to stop an immediate, unlawful, deadly threat. If you (or the officer) have time to fire warning shots, then that proves that the threat either wasn't immediate or wasn't a “deadly force” threat, or both.





In the District, police are not allowed to fire warning shots or to shoot into a crowd or solely to protect property.
