Role of federal agents in D.C. questioned

I recently saw a photograph of five federal agents — all in body armor and at least two from the FBI — who had questioned a couple in Washington, D.C., for parking beyond the legal parking limits at a McDonald’s. This brings up the obvious question, “How many federal agents doe it take to investigate a parking issue?”

That leads to some other interesting questions such as:

■ What authority do federal agents have to investigate parking issues, since they are not under federal jurisdiction?

■ Is this really the best use for the FBI and three other federal agents?

■ What is this costing the taxpayers?
