CNN: Secret Service did not sweep building where shooter was perched

World 10:33 16.07.2024

The US Secret Service did not sweep the building from which the shooter in Saturday’s attempted assassination was perched, but instead leaned on local law enforcement to conduct security at that location, Ednews informs referring to CNN.

The spokesman added that there was supposed to be local law enforcement posted in that area, but it is not clear where that post was supposed to be located. A source not directly involved but with knowledge of Secret Service operations described possible roaming posts, for example, as part of some operational plans.

The Secret Service regularly and successfully works with local law enforcement agencies to assist with securing events, as is the case in Milwaukee where the Republican National Convention is about to kick off.

Further, the Secret Service utilized two local counter-sniper teams during former President Donald Trump’s rally, in addition to two Secret Service counter-sniper teams.

The spokesman did not know at the time of CNN’s inquiry which local agency should have been responsible for the building.
