EXCLUSIVE — An armed U.S. Secret Service agent assigned to Vice President 
Kamala Harris's protective detail fought unarmed with other detail agents 
on Monday morning.

The incident occurred at the Washington, D.C.-area Andrews Air Force Base, 
before Harris arrived, and after the agent suffered what the Secret 
Service has characterized as a medical incident. The Washington Examiner 
is aware of the agent's name and specific detail responsibilities but is 
withholding those details for privacy reasons.

The Washington Examiner understands that the agent became aggressive with 
other agents. When the special agent in charge and a detail shift 
supervisor attempted to calm the agent, a physical altercation ensued. The 
agent was handcuffed before being withdrawn from service for medical 
assessment. Harris was scheduled to arrive at Andrews Air Force Base after 
the incident.

In a statement, Secret Service Chief of Communications Anthony Guglielmi 
told the Washington Examiner, "At approximately 9 a.m. April 22, a U.S. 
Secret Service special agent supporting the Vice President’s departure 
from Joint Base Andrews began displaying behavior their colleagues found 
distressing. The agent was removed from their assignment while medical 
personnel were summoned. The Vice President was at the Naval Observatory 
when this incident occurred and there was no impact on her departure from 
Joint Base Andrews. The U.S. Secret Service takes the safety and health of 
our employees very seriously. As this was a medical matter, we will not 
disclose any further details."

All Secret Service agents are armed while on domestic protective duty. But 
as with their Diplomatic Security Service counterparts, agents assigned to 
protective details endure heavy travel burdens, often working long hours 
away from home. The psychological health of armed agents serving in very 
close proximity to high-ranking government officials and foreign heads of 
state is thus a high-priority concern for the Secret Service.

Moreover, the Vice Presidential Protective Division is widely regarded 
within the Secret Service as the second most prestigious assignment after 
the Presidential Protective Division. Because of the continuity of 
government protocols, VPD agents are party to exceptionally sensitive 
planning on responses to nuclear war and catastrophic terrorist attacks or 
environmental disasters. Agents must serve in field offices for a minimum 
of three years and receive excellent performance reports before going to 
VPD. They must also then pass the intensive Protective Detail Training 
course at the Secret Service's James J. Rowley training facility in the DC 
suburbs.

The Washington Examiner is unaware of the agent's current status. The Vice 
President's office did not respond to a request for comment.
