Secret Service Pittsburgh employees placed on administrative leave: report
Several members of the U.S. Secret Service Pittsburgh Field Office have reportedly been placed on administrative leave following the July 13 assassination attempt against former President Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania.
A different group of USSS agents specifically assigned to Trump's detail remain operational, sources familiar with the matter told RealClear Politics.
Anthony Guglielmi, USSS chief of communications, told Fox News Digital in a statement that the agency's personnel are held "to the highest professional standards, and any identified and substantiated violations of policy will be investigated by the Office of Professional Responsibility for potential disciplinary action."
USSS did not directly confirm any employees placed on leave, but Guglielmi added that given the "personal" nature of the matter, the agency is "not in a position to comment further."
