Washington—
— Supreme Court Justice Stephen G. Breyer was robbed last week by a machete-wielding intruder at his vacation home in the West Indies, a court spokeswoman said Monday.Breyer, 73, his wife, Joanna, and guests were confronted by the robber about 9 p.m. Thursday in the home Breyer owns on the Caribbean island of Nevis, spokeswoman Kathy Arberg said. The intruder took about $1,000 in cash, and no one was hurt, Arberg said.
She said the robbery was reported to local authorities, but she did not know whether an arrest had been made. The U.S. Marshals Service is assisting local authorities and the Supreme Court Police with the investigation, Marshals Service spokesman Jeff Carter said.
Breyer reported on his most recent annual disclosure in June that property he owns on Nevis is worth between $100,000 and $250,000.
Tell it to Susan Kelo I’m sure she’ll be all ears.
