U.S. Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer, his wife, and guests to his Caribbean island vacation home were robbed last week by a man wielding a machete, the Associated Press reports. No one was hurt, according to a court spokesperson.

The spokesperson said that the intruder took about $1,000 in cash and that the robbery was reported to local authorities, although she didn't know if an arrest has been made. A U.S. Marshals Service spokesperson said the service and the Supreme Court police are assisting authorities on the island, Nevis, with the investigation.
