Bodyguards for Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor shot and wounded a would-be carjacker outside the justice’s D.C. home last week, federal authorities confirmed Tuesday.
The U.S. Marshals Service said two of its agents were working guard duty early on July 5 when 18-year-old suspect Kentrell Flowers tried to carjack one of the agents at gunpoint near a Northwest condo building.
Metropolitan Police said the marshal pulled out his own gun and shot the suspect. Another marshal sitting in a separate car got out and shot the suspect as well.
The suspect, identified as 18-year-old Kentrell Flowers of Southeast, was transported to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
No law enforcement officers were injured during the incident.
Flowers has been arrested and charged with armed carjacking, carrying a pistol without a license, and possession of a large-capacity ammunition feeding device.

He had 18 years to learn what is bad and what is good. How much longer do you think he needs to learn that? And now the other people have to pay to keep him away from them.
Authorities identified the suspect as Kentrell Flowers, who could not be reached for comment. The Toyota Sienna minivan that Flowers pulled up in was also carjacked, authorities allege.

I'm glad he isn't dead. Young and dumb shouldn't equal a death sentence. But he was certainly a bad boy. He'll have time to think over his bad decision. And probably learn a whole lot more bad stuff in prison.
