A Secret Service agent has been accused of sexually assaulting one of Vice President Kamala Harris’ staffers, according to a report.
The male agent allegedly tried to force himself on the female staffer at a hotel room in Green Bay, Wisconsin, last week, where he and several campaign staffers had been sent to organize a campaign event, according to RealClearPolitics, which cited multiple Secret Service sources.
Secret Service agents and Harris staffers had reportedly been drinking over dinner after finishing their work for the day, when they retired to the staffer’s hotel room, the political site reported.
Once in the room, the heavily inebriated agent allegedly tried to force himself on the woman, groping her in full view of the numerous people in the room, according to the report.
Staffers removed the agent from the room, and he was allegedly so drunk that he passed out in the hallway, RealClearPolitics reported.
He was summoned to Secret Service headquarters in Washington, DC, Monday, where he was ordered to meet with agency investigators.
The Secret Service confirmed it had placed an employee on administrative leave “pending the outcome of an investigation” when contacted by The Post about the allegations.
