A United States Secret Service member was robbed at gunpoint in Orange County, California on Saturday, June 15. According to local and federal law enforcement agencies, the agent fired his government-issued weapon during the incident.

The Secret Service agent, whose identity was not revealed, had his bag stolen near a residential area as he was returning from a work assignment, as per a release from the Tustin Police Department (TPD). TPD said officers responded to a call regarding the robbery just after 9:30 p.m. and confirmed that an officer-involved shooting had taken place.

“A member of the U.S. Secret Service was the victim of an armed robbery in Tustin, California, late Saturday when returning from a work assignment,” the Secret Service said in the statement following the incident. “The employee discharged their service weapon during the incident but unknown if the assailants were struck. We are thankful that the employee did not sustain any injuries.”

A source familiar with the investigation said that the officer was operating in a support capacity during President Joe Biden’s California trip, but he was off-duty at the time of the incident and was not a part of Biden’s protective detail. The police department, like the Secret Service, also said in a separate statement they do not know if the suspect was injured as a result of the incident, who left the scene in a silver car and has not been located. Meanwhile, some of the Secret Service agent’s belongings were recovered.

The police said that the investigation remains open and ongoing.

Meanwhile, 81-year-old Biden was in Los Angeles for a fundraising event on the same day. Biden, along with many celebrities, gathered at the Peacock Theater and went back to his hotel room by 9 p.m., half an hour before the armed robbery incident occurred.

This is not the first time this year that unwanted publicity for the president’s protective service came out. The National Pulse reported in late April that a member of Vice President Kamala Harris’ Secret Service detail was involved in a physical fight with her superior. It was subsequently revealed that the agent in question, Michelle Herczeg, had thrown menstrual pads at other agents and had a concerning history of mental health incidents. Agents within the service had raised numerous concerns regarding Herczeg’s erratic behavior and history.

“The agent was removed from their assignment while medical personnel were summoned. The vice president was at the Naval Observatory when this incident occurred and there was no impact on her departure from Joint Base Andrews,” Anthony Guglielmi, Secret Service chief of communications, said in a statement shared with Fox News Digital. “The U.S. Secret Service takes the safety and health of our employees very seriously. As this was a medical matter, we will not disclose any further details.” (Related: DEI-hire Secret Service agent assigned to VP Harris ASSAULTS superior while on duty.)

First family’s dog Commander bit Secret Service agent while Biden was walking him

Biden gets a front-row seat whenever his embattled German Sheperd bites people around him and according to newly released records, Commander bit a secret service agent while the president was walking him around the grounds of the White House back in September.

The Secret Service agent was about to approach Biden to help him with something, the records obtained by conservative activist group Judicial Watch and reviewed by ABC News show.

“As I started to walk toward him to see if he needed help, Commander ran through his legs and bit my left arm through the front of my jacket. I pulled my arm away and yelled no,” according to an email sent from an unnamed agent. “When turning to close the door, Commander jumped again and bit my left arm for the second time.” According to the email, while no skin was broken, bites tore three holes in the suit and the agent filed a $943 reimbursement.

Meanwhile, after it was reported in the press, another agent was bitten. In one incident, a Secret Service uniformed officer had to be taken to the hospital after a bite from Commander. Then, only two days later, an official in the Secret Service’s agency’s Safety, Health & Environmental Division wrote: “Can we please find a way to get this dog muzzled?”

The dog was moved from the White House in October, due to a string of a total of 11 biting incidents, according to a tally from the news outlet.
