The marshal was on duty with another officer in an unmarked vehicle when 18-year-old Kentrell Flowers allegedly approached the vehicle with a loaded firearm around 1:17 a.m. on July 5, according to a court filing.
The officers − both of whom were wearing shirts identify them as marshals − were protecting Sotomayor, who has a condo on the street where the shooting occurred, according to the Daily Mail, which first reported the connection.
