<p>Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX) broke his silence on Tuesday morning after being carjacked Monday night by armed assailants in Washington, D.C.</p>
<p>The 68-year-old congressman was carjacked in D.C.&#8217;s upscale Navy Yard neighborhood just before 10 p.m. EST. A police alert said that law enforcement was searching for &#8220;three black males wearing all black clothing.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I was just coming into my place, three guys came out of nowhere and they pointed guns at me,&#8221; Cuellar told reporters. &#8220;I do have a black belt, but I recognize when you got three guns — I looked at one with a gun, another with a gun, a third one behind me — so they said they wanted my car and I said sure.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;You got to keep calm under those situations and then they took off,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;They recovered the car. They recovered everything, what really got me upset was they took my sushi but anyway, that&#8217;s something else. And they did recover the sushi after all.&#8221;</p>
<p>Cuellar suggested that the incident did not significantly impact him emotionally and that his message following the incident was, &#8220;You got to support law enforcement.&#8221;</p>
<p>When asked by a reporter if security should be boosted for members of Congress following the incident, Cuellar responded: &#8220;I don&#8217;t know. I&#8217;ll leave that to House administration, but this happened less than a mile away from the Capitol.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;And my place, you got our leader Hakeem [Jeffries] there, Katherine Clark who lives there, a whole bunch of members that live in that place,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;So, I&#8217;ll leave that up to the police.&#8221;</p>
