Authorities Charge 2 More Suspects With Attack On DOGE Employee

Two more suspects have been charged with the attempted carjacking and beating of a 19-year-old man who was working for the Trump administration’s Department of Government Efficiency. The Aug. 3 attack on DOGE employee Edward Coristine was a catalyst for President Donald Trump's law-enforcement surge in the nation’s capital. Two suspects — 19-year-old Laurence Cotton-Powell and 18-year-old Anthony Taylor — were arrested last week on charges of attempted unarmed carjacking, robbery and assault with intent to commit a robbery. Two 15-year-old suspects from Maryland previously were charged with Coristine’s beating.
