A Secret Service agent on the protective detail for Vice President Kamala Harris reportedly came to blows with other agents at Andrews Air Force Base this week ahead of her departure, according to a report.

The New York Post, quoting unnamed sources, said the agent in question “brawled” with several others before being removed from the veep’s detail. The report said the altercation took place around 9 a.m. local time before Harris arrived.

The agent was immediately “removed from their assignment,” the Secret Service told The Post.

“A US Secret Service special agent supporting the Vice President’s departure from Joint Base Andrews began displaying behavior their colleagues found distressing,” Anthony Guglielmi, chief of communications for the U.S. Secret Service, told the outlet. “The US Secret Service takes the safety and health of our employees very seriously.”

Medical personnel were summoned after a scuffle at the base, according to Guglielmi. The agent was there to support Harris’ planned departure, but the incident did not delay her travel. Harris was going to New York City, where she was scheduled to tape an interview on “The Drew Barrymore Show.”

The Post added:

The agent who instigated the fight was armed and grew aggressive with others, the Washington Examiner reported. A detail shift supervisor and special agent in charge pushed him to cool off, but then a fight broke out, according to the report. That agent acted “erratically” when he arrived and eventually got on top of the special agent in charge of the vice president, then began punching him, RealClearPolitics reported. Afterward, the unnamed agent was reportedly handcuffed and received medical attention.

RealClearPolitics’ Susan Crabtree added in an X post: “Sources within the Secret Service community tell me the agent assigned to VP Kamala Harris was armed during the fight – that the gun was secured in the agent’s holster until other agents physically restrained the agent and took the gun from the agent’s possession. I’m also told there are DEI concerns among the USSS community about the hiring of this agent. Other agents and officers within the USSS are asking questions about the agent’s hiring process, whether the USSS did enough to look into the agent’s background and monitor the agent’s mental well-being because there have been widespread concerns about other strange behavior before this incident. For now, I am also withholding the agent’s name.”

She added: “Other details: Sources say the agent in question was acted erratically upon showing up for a traveling shift at Joint Base Andrews. The agent ended up tackling the Senior Agent in Charge of the VP detail, got on top of him and started punching him. At this point, I’m told, the agent who was attacking the SAIC did indeed have a gun, but it was in the holster. Other agents are expressing relief that the agent did not shoot the SAIC.”

Crabtree later indicated that the agent was a woman. “It is unclear whether she is on administrative leave, the agency’s common practice while investigating behavioral incidents,” she noted in another X post.

Harris was notified about the situation, according to Guglielmi, The Post reported.

In March, a new round of emails between Secret Service agents and supervisors revealed that the first family’s German Shepard, Commander, has been a lot more aggressive than what was previously reported.

The emails contain several reports of the dog snipping and lunging at agents, even to the point of causing serious injury, the Washington Examiner reported.
