Police called to Washington home of Tanya Chutkan on Sunday night after shooting reported – but no such incident took place
A home owned by the judge overseeing the federal election subversion case against Donald Trump was targeted by a fake emergency call on Sunday night, the latest in a spate of similar false “swatting” reports at the homes of public officials in recent days.
Police responded at about 10pm to a report of a shooting at a Washington DC home linked in public records to the US district judge Tanya Chutkan. But officers quickly found out that no shooting happened, the Metropolitan police department said on Monday.
