According to US media, a Secret Service officer assigned to protect Joe Biden’s granddaughter, Naomi, shot at unknown people who were trying to break into an emergency vehicle.
The security service responsible for protecting the president and his family confirmed the use of firearms on Monday, but without naming Biden’s granddaughter Naomi.
“We assume that no one was hit”
Secret Service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said on the short message service: “During this encounter, a federal officer fired his service weapon and it is believed no one was struck.”
The protected person was not threatened in any way, it was said. The suspects fled in a red car. Investigations have been started.
The crime would not have been directed against the granddaughter
American media such as ABC reported that the incident took place in front of the home of 29-year-old Biden’s granddaughter Naomi in Georgetown. There was no indication that the car burglary was in any way directed against the lawyer. According to ABC, the daughter of Biden’s son Hunter was informed of the incident. Car burglaries occur regularly in Washington. Cars with smashed side windows are a common sight in some parts of the city.
