U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan, who is presiding over former President Donald Trump‘s election interference case in Washington, D.C., was the target of a “swatting” call Sunday evening, making her the latest victim of the dangerous attack.
The Sunday night call, which happened just after 10 p.m., sent law enforcement racing to Chutkan’s home in Crestwood, a neighborhood in Washington, according to a records search of the address stated by emergency medical services, which said they were responding to “a shooting.” The authorities were called off roughly 10 minutes later upon finding that the original caller made a bogus claim.
