Sean Dunn was acquitted by a federal jury of misdemeanor assault for throwing a sandwich at a federal officer in DC. He hurled the sandwich at 14th and U streets in August while shouting profanities and opposing the federal presence. Video of the incident went viral and became a symbol of local resistance to the Trump administration's crackdown. Authorities responded by sending armed troops to his apartment and filming his arrest despite his offer to surrender. Prosecutors initially charged him with felony assault, and he lost his paralegal position at the Department of Justice. Street art referencing the incident appeared across the city.
