Bodyguard of Justice Sotomayor, Known for Criticizing the 2nd Amendment, Shoots Suspected Carjacker Near Her Residence

Two deputy U.S. Marshals thought to be guarding Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor’s home in Washington, D.C. shot a suspected carjacker who pulled out a gun last week, officials said.

The U.S. Marshals office said that suspect Kentrell Flowers, 18, allegedly walked up to one of the deputies’ cars at around 1:15 a.m. on July 5 and pointed a gun at the bodyguard.

The Marshal fired four shots, hitting Flowers in the mouth. Flowers was taken to hospital for treatment and arrested.
