Prosecutors in Washington on Aug. 28 downgraded a charge against a man who was seen on camera throwing a sandwich at a Customs and Border Protection agent during the federal takeover of the D.C. police after a grand jury declined to indict the man.
Instead of pursuing a felony indictment, prosecutors charged former Justice Department employee Sean Dunn with a misdemeanor assault against a federal law enforcement officer. Misdemeanors do not require grand jury approval.
