WASHINGTON (AP) — A man facing a felony charge for throwing a sandwich at a federal law enforcement officer in the nation’s capital has been dismissed from his position at the Justice Department, Attorney General Pam Bondi announced in a social media post on Thursday.

A video of Sean Charles Dunn criticizing a group of federal agents late Sunday became widely viewed online as the White House increased law-enforcement patrols in Washington this week. Dunn was detained on an assault charge after he tossed a “sub-style” sandwich at a Customs and Border Protection officer, according to a court document.

Dunn, 37, from Washington, worked as an international affairs specialist within the Justice Department’s criminal division, according to a department official who spoke on the condition of anonymity regarding a personnel issue.

“This is an example of the Deep State we have been up against for seven months as we work to refocus DOJ,” Bondi stated. “You will NOT work in this administration while disrespecting our government and law enforcement.”

The Justice Department continues to employ a former FBI agent who was charged with partaking in a mob’s assault on the U.S. Capitol and encouraging rioters during the January 6, 2021, insurrection. The former FBI supervisory agent, Jared Lane Wise, currently serves as a counselor to Justice Department pardon attorney Ed Martin Jr., who was prominently involved in President Donald Trump’s effort to challenge the 2020 election results.

At approximately 11 p.m. on Sunday, Dunn approached a group of CBP officers, gestured at one officer with his finger, and insulted him, labeling him a “fascist,” according to a police affidavit. A witness’s video documented Dunn throwing a sandwich at the officer’s chest, stated the affidavit.

“Why are you here? I don’t want you in my city!” Dunn shouted, according to police.

Dunn tried to run away but was apprehended, police said.

An attorney for Dunn didn’t immediately respond to an email seeking comment.

The incident coincided with Trump’s push to flood the city with National Guard troops and federal officers. Trump claims crime in the city has reached emergency levels, but city leaders point to statistics showing violent crime at a 30-year low.
