Sean Charles Dunn, a 37-year-old employee of the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), was fired and charged with felony assault following an altercation with Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents in Washington, D.C. The incident occurred late on August 14, 2025, when Dunn approached a group of federal law enforcement officers on 14th Street NW. Video footage of the incident, which was widely shared online, shows Dunn berating the agents before the act [2]. No weapons were involved, but the DOJ described the act as a direct attack on federal law enforcement personnel [1]. The firing of Dunn has sparked discussions about behavior and accountability within the DOJ, particularly as it relates to interactions between federal personnel and the public.
