DC Man Who Threw Sub At CBP Officer Has Been Fired From Justice Department

The man who went viral for throwing his submarine sandwich at a federal officer reportedly worked at the Justice Department and has now lost his job, Attorney General Pam Bondi announced.

In a viral video from Sunday, a pink-shirted man was filmed shouting at a Customs and Border Protection officer in northwest Washington, D.C. The man then quickly wound up his arm and lobbed his sandwich at the officer before taking off running.

Footage showed the officer hit by the sandwich and several others chasing the pink-shirted man, who was later revealed to be an international affairs specialist in the DOJ’s criminal division, The Washington Post reported.

“I just learned that this defendant worked at the Department of Justice — NO LONGER,” Bondi wrote on X on Thursday while reposting an article from the New York Post.

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