U.S. Rep. Henry Cuellar, D-Texas, was carjacked Monday night by three armed attackers, his office said.

Cuellar’s chief of staff Jacob Hochberg released a statement saying: “As Congressman Cuellar was parking his car this evening, 3 armed assailants approached the Congressman and stole his vehicle. Luckily, he was not harmed and is working with local law enforcement.”

Hochberg said police recovered Cuellar’s vehicle.

    I live in a suburban town that's right next to a medium sized city and for me it's a perfect mix. My crime rates are considerably lower, schools are good, and I'm close enough to easily enjoy everything the city has to offer. I've lived in more distant suburbs and in the middle of nowhere and I really didn't care for those places. There just wasn't enough to do.

      I live in the city but on the edge of it. Very low crime, stores, theaters, nice peeps, no worries about parking… yet about 12 minutes from the city center. The city, Madison WI, is also the state capital and the University of Wisconsin campus. Concerts, football stadium, lakes, restaurants, etc.

      Fucking perfect.
