Early Tuesday morning, a Secret Service agent opened fire on carjackers outside the home of Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen in northwest Washington, D.C. The incident occurred around 1:30 a.m. when the agent, on protective assignment, observed a sedan with multiple occupants attempting to open car doors along the street.
According to USSS Chief Communications Officer Anthony Guglielmi, a confrontation ensued between the agent and the car's occupants as the sedan approached. The agent discharged their service weapon, but there is currently no evidence to indicate anyone was struck or injured.
