Subway Sandwich Attack: DC Man Charged Attacks Federal Agent Amid Trump Crime Crackdown

In a bizarre twist to Washington, D.C.’s ongoing crime crackdown, a man is facing felony assault charges for allegedly throwing a Subway sandwich at a U.S. Customs and Border Protection agent. Authorities say Sean Charles Dunn confronted the agent in the U Street area, hurling obscenities before “forcefully” tossing the sandwich into the officer’s chest. The incident unfolded amid President Donald Trump’s recent federalization of the D.C. Metropolitan Police Department, deploying National Guard troops and multiple federal agencies to patrol the city. After a brief chase, Dunn allegedly confessed to the assault. U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro slammed the act, warning, “Stick your Subway sandwich somewhere else.” The strange but serious case underscores the tense climate in the capital following Trump’s law-and-order push. #DCCrime #Trump #JeaninePirro #USCapitol #FelonyAssault #SandwichAttack #CBP #NationalGuard #BreakingNews #CrimeUpdate #DCCrackdown #LawEnforcement #BizarreCrime #FBI #DEA #USCapitolPolice #ATF #WashingtonDC #OfficerSafety #TrumpCrimePlan ~HT.410~ED.346~GR.122~
