President Joe Biden’s granddaughter, Naomi Biden, is an associate at Arnold & Porter, and accordingly, has a Secret Service detail (for that first part, not because she’s a Biglaw associate). Over the weekend, those agents were called into action when they witnessed three individuals trying to break into an unmarked Secret Service vehicle.
As reported by the Associated Press, the incident took place on Sunday night in the Georgetown neighborhood. One agent discharged their weapon, but it is not believed that anyone was injured.
