11 Secret Service agents from the Pittsburgh Field Office were placed on leave after Trump's assassination attempt.
Several US Secret Service agents from the Pittsburgh Field Office were placed on administrative leave following the assassination attempt on former President Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania. This move comes after the incident, where a separate group of agents protecting Trump remain operational. Acting Secret Service Director Ronald Rowe is investigating possible security lapses, and the internal dissent has sparked speculation that the Pittsburgh office may bear the brunt of security failures. Critics argue that top Secret Service officials should also share blame for declining security assets requested for the rally.
