A man and a 14-year-old were arrested in connection with the break-in of a Secret Service vehicle used by President Biden's granddaughter, Naomi Biden.
The vehicle had been parked outside a Georgetown residence in November when a secret service agent fired at a getaway car that nearly hit him during the incident the night of Nov. 12, reported The Washington Post.
In court documents obtained by the news outlet, it states the Secret Service vehicle is used by members of the president's family. A law enforcement official confirmed the car was for Naomi Biden, Biden's adult granddaughter.
What does the break-in encompass?
The arrests of the suspect and accompanying youth came after D.C. authorities located the getaway car, a stolen red Toyota Corolla, abandoned in 16 Street Heights. Items stolen from the Secret Service vehicle include a protective vest, night-vision goggles, a first aid bag, and a computer router.
Law enforcement also found a McDonald's bag and food receipt that ultimately led them to the culprits from the fingerprints found on the items.
In a complaint procured by ABC News, two Secret Service agents first reported the incident at Naomi Biden's residence. While the complaint does not specifically name Naomi Biden, ABC News confirmed through familiar sources that the incident occurred outside her home.
The affidavit names 19-year-old Washington resident Robert Kemp as the primary suspect. Kemp agreed to speak with investigators at his home in December but was only taken into custody on Feb. 7.
He allegedly told officials that he had been driving the sedan at the time of the break-in but blamed the incident on another individual named "JR."
He "denied knowing the whereabouts of the items stolen and wasn't sure of what was taken from the 'black truck,'" the complaint states.
It's noted that one of the agents "observed a black male, legs hanging out of the broken driver side rear window" of the Secret Service vehicle.
As the agent yelled police, the suspect fled in the sedan, "almost striking" one of the agents, who then fired his weapon.
The juvenile believed to be with Kemp was also under GPS monitoring, which validated their presence in the area at the time of the break-in. He was arrested Friday and charged with three counts of armed carjacking.
Kemp is scheduled to appear in court for a preliminary hearing on Feb. 29.
