In an alarming incident over the weekend, a U.S. Secret Service agent found himself the victim of a robbery at gunpoint. This occurred as President Joe Biden was in Los Angeles attending a fundraising event. The unfortunate event unfolded in the city of Tustin, a tranquil residential hub positioned just an hour’s drive southeast of the illustrious Los Angeles. The agent, his duties for the day concluded, was returning from work on a Saturday night when he encountered the perilous situation.
Minutes past 9:30 p.m., the alarm was raised. A concerned citizen, aware of the dangerous encounter that had just transpired, swiftly dialed in to the Tustin Police Department to report the robbery. The local police relayed that the Secret Service agent had been victim to a brazen theft, as the assailant brandishing a firearm compelled him to surrender his bag.
