A Washington, D.C. man was arrested following an alleged incident in which he spat on two National Guardsmen stationed at Union Station. The individual, identified as Scott Pichon, faces felony assault charges. Surveillance footage captured Pichon riding an e-scooter near the guardsmen and allegedly expelling a mixture of saliva and mucus onto them. Amtrak police officer Sergeant Robert Underwood reported witnessing the act, describing Pichon making a noise resembling coughing before spitting on the soldiers. The National Guard members were patrolling outside Union Station when the alleged attack occurred. Pichon did not stop his scooter after the incident, according to court documents. Security camera footage showed the guardsmen’s reactions, leading to Underwood detaining and arresting Pichon. Pichon, a 33-year-old Maryland lawyer, was charged with felony assault on Friday afternoon. The National Guard presence in D.C. has been part of broader federal operations, though specific details about the context of their deployment were not provided in the report.
