CBS News reported:

The U.S. Secret Service has placed at least five agents on leave, including the head of the Pittsburgh field office, as a result of its investigation into last month’s assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump, according to multiple sources familiar with the matter.

One agent on Trump’s detail and three others in the Pittsburgh office were among those placed on leave, according to two federal law enforcement sources. It’s unclear if all of these actions are disciplinary, since agents are routinely placed on leave during the course of investigations for various reasons, including mental health relief.

The Secret Service’s internal affairs division is continuing to investigate how a 20-year-old gunman was able to fire eight rounds from a rooftop near where Trump was speaking in Butler, Pennsylvania, on July 13, including one shot that grazed the Republican presidential nominee’s ear.

Secret Service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi declined to confirm the agents were placed on leave, saying he would not comment on a personnel matter. But he said the service’s “mission assurance review is progressing, and we are examining the processes, procedures and factors that led to this operational failure.”

He added that the Secret Service “holds our personnel to the highest professional standards, and any identified and substantiated violations of policy will be investigated by the Office of Professional Responsibility for potential disciplinary action.”

ABC 30 confirmed:

At least five U.S. Secret Service officials involved in the planning of Donald Trump’s rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on July 13, where a gunman attempted to kill the former president, have been placed on administrative duties, according to sources familiar with the situation.

The officials are still working but not allowed to be involved in anything operational including the security planning, the sources told ABC News.

The Secret Service’s Office of Professional Responsibility investigation has been intensifying, and while the investigation has focused on the failures, miscues and planning up to Butler, the probe is now focusing on a number of issues, including the number of classified threats against former President Trump by Iran and what the agency did in response security wise to the new intelligence.

An official tells ABC News this means even more senior officials might be caught up in the review.
