DC man seen throwing sandwich at agent charged with misdemeanor after grand jury declines indictment
August 28, 2025
A man captured on camera hurling a sandwich at a federal agent in Washington has been charged with a misdemeanor after prosecutors failed to convince a grand jury to return a more serious felony indictment, according to court papers filed Thursday. The move is a blow to the Trump administration, which had touted the felony assault case to show it would aggressively prosecute violence against law enforcement even after Trump pardoned Jan. 6 rioters who brutally attacked officers with poles and other makeshift weapons.
