Supreme Court Justice Sotomayor's Bodyguards Shoot Would-Be Carjacker Outside Her Home

Posted • July 10, 2024: There are several reasonable angles to this story but let’s start with the story itself: Supreme Court Justice Sotomayor’s bodyguards shoot would-be carjacker outside her home.

Two deputy US Marshals shot a would-be carjacker who pulled a gun on him while they were guarding Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor’s home in Washington, DC, authorities said.

The marshals were parked outside Sotomayor’s home in northwest DC on July 5 when Kentrell Flowers, 18, allegedly walked up to one of their cars around 1:15 a.m.

And pointed a gun one of the federal agents, the US Marshals Service told The Post.

To break in for a moment, North West is considered a relatively safe part of D.C.

But you are notably safer the moment you exit the entire district and go to either to Maryland or Virginia.

One of the federal agents drew his weapon and fired several shots at the suspect, with the second officer also firing his weapon at Flowers.
