Secret Service Agent Removed from VP's Detail After Behaving Disturbingly
Agent Exhibited Distressing Behavior
A Secret Service special agent was removed from Vice President Kamala Harris's detail after exhibiting distressing behavior this week, according to sources familiar with the matter.
Investigation Underway
The Secret Service is investigating the incident, and the agent has been reassigned to a non-operational role. The nature of the agent's behavior was not immediately clear, but it was described as “distressing” and “concerning.”
The agent had been assigned to the Vice President's detail since January 2021.
Prior Incidents
This is not the first time a Secret Service agent has been removed from their post for behavioral issues. In 2017, an agent was removed from President Trump's detail after he was found to have sent inappropriate text messages.
