U.S. Secret Service Agent's car broken into ?



WASHINGTON - A U.S. Secret Service agent from the Presidential Protective Division that looks after the security of the President, was robbed of his gun, badge, radio, handcuffs and a USB flash drive in Washington, not far from the headquarters of the agency, reported CNN, citing unnamed sources and a police report.

The theft took place Monday in broad daylight, and from the agent's car, which he had parked on a street in central Washington.

When he returned to his car, the agent noticed the rear window of his vehicle was open, while several items, including a Sig Sauer handgun, an APX6000 radio, handcuffs, a USB flash drive, a Patagonia bag and a Secret Service badge numbered 1266, were missing.

The incident adds to the string of scandals and security lapses that has hit the Secret Service in the last few years leading to the resignation of its director Julia Pierson and dismissal of four other top officials.

One of the most notorious scandals to have hit the law enforcement agency's reputation was in 2012 when 12 Secret Service agents hired prostitutes ahead of Obama's visit to Cartagena, Colombia, for the Summit of the Americas.

The unease caused by these incidents was further aggravated when, for the first time, an armed individual had breached security and entered the White House on Sept. 19 2013.
