US Supreme Court justice robbed at island home

The incident took place February 9 at the justice's home in Nevis, with about $1,000 cash taken, the spokeswoman said.

"No one was hurt," said the official, noting that the 73-year-old Breyer was "robbed by an armed intruder" and that "the individual was armed with a machete."

Breyer was on vacation during a break from the schedule of the top US court, which resumes hearings Friday.
