The Secret Service reportedly apologised to a Massachusetts salon owner who claimed that some individuals broke into her business to use the bathroom while the agency was doing security work for a nearby Kamala Harris fundraiser. Berkshires businesswoman Alicia Powers alleged that someone picked the lock and then broke into her store to use the bathroom.
This happened after a Secret Service officer used a tape to cover a camera outside her salon. A pair of people wearing emergency medical uniforms, a person in camouflage law-enforcement gear and another in a dark suit and white shirt used the bathroom, Powers said. A Secret Service rep asserted that agents would never break into buildings this way. However, the rep did not deny that the camera was covered with tape by an officer.
This act was even captured by surveillance footage. They were not supposed to enter the building without permission. The owner said that due to the security mayhem, her salon was closed before the fundraiser. Powers said that early that morning, a female Secret Service agent covered a Ring security camera at the salon using duct tape.
They just helped themselves. This incident comes days after Donald Trump survived an assassination attempt at his Pennsylvania rally, leading to the Secret Service facing widespread criticism for their failure to secure the roof of the building from where gunman Thomas Matthew Crooks opened fire.
