Swann Street is gaining its own reputation.


Really? We live two blocks away and I honestly didn’t know that. It was always the 1400 block of R, not the 1400 block of Swann. We love the neighborhood but it’s definitely gotten more dicey since Covid. It sure as hell isn’t smart to be hanging around any of our residential side streets at 3 am on a Saturday night. Not that I’m blaming the victims but that’s just plain nuts.


Probably walking home from the bars

If the truth comes out, I suspect there will be more to the story. Almost an hour after last call and he’s an underage kid? Either he was out using a fake id, or he was there to buy drugs or something. Something doesn’t add up

I’m not really sure what the solution is for these juvenile crimes. Are other big cities trying 15 year olds as adults for these things? I just don’t know. I agree some of these teens seem to act with impunity and are apparently sociopathic.



IMO they should be for violent crime like assault. Crimes against people directly are very different from shoplifting etc. People are killed in carjackings.

Yes. While we may say that a 15 year old brain is not fully developed, a 15 year old who is not mentally deficient absolutely knows right from wrong.
These teens know their records will be wiped clean when they reach a given age. That practice should absolutely be halted.

That is not true. The police report said officers observed approximately 10 attackers.


Again, not verified. People often do a bad job of estimating things like this (the number of gunshots, the number of people present, etc.). Yes, even cops. The ultimately arrested two people. We have know idea if the other people present were attackers or onlookers at this point, and the fact that they scattered when the cops showed up is not evidence of guilt, but is to be expected.

I have seen wild speculation about the number of attackers and the nature of the attack on Twitter and would just caution people to wait and see how it unfolds. You weren't there, you don't know.

lol sure. Heard he got his a$$ whipped by two teens — boy and girl. Unarmed. Still not great for DC but completely different scenario.

Surprised he wasn’t attacked by a group of middle aged federal workers but karma is karma

That was a DC ICE operation. DOGE staffers are invited to self-deport from DC. MDGA!

Guess I shouldn't be hanging out in the street at 3am

That's Musk's version of the story but the Washington Post says he was injured in an "attempted carjacking".

https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2025/08/05/trump-doge-worker-washington-dc-crime/

We will probably have to wait to learn the full story.



I will not be surprised if it turns out he left his car unlocked and running and saw people jumping in.


The DC thugs were attacking the woman in her car.

Big Balls stepped in to save her.


No. Corisitine was together with his (ugh, gross) girlfriend in the car they used together.

It doesn't appear big balls and the woman were strangers and it doesn't seem like she was injured. In the mpd press release about the arrest of two juveniles for unarmed attempted carjacking, it says

"On Sunday, August 3, 2025, at approximately 3:00 a.m., the suspects approached the victims, who were standing next to their vehicle, in the 1400 block of Swann Street, Northwest. The suspects demanded the victim’s vehicle and then assaulted one of the victims."

Curious to see how this case turns out. Also hopefully mpd and the US atty's office will work better together with pirro in charge. I don't like her, but I want her to succeed in bringing cases that hold up in court and put dangerous people behind bars.


The suspects were 15 so not criminal masterminds, but I’m curious how on earth you carjack someone unarmed.


Um. Ten on one would do it.


But there were only two, both girls. Is Big Balls a very slight man? Something here doesn't add up.


Dummy, can you read a police report?

The police stated # of attackers was 10, dummy.

The teens were from Maryland. Why should DC suffer federalization because of Maryland teens?
