The Secret Service has suspended six agents over failures during President Donald Trump's assassination attempt in Pennsylvania last year.

The then-presidential candidate was holding a rally in Butler on July 13, 2024, when 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks opened fire.

One shot narrowly missed Trump and grazed his ear, while a firefighter who attended the rally, Corey Comperatore, was shot dead.

The shooter was quickly taken out by Secret Service counter-snipers as agents rushed Trump to safety.

But in the aftermath, the agency was hounded with questions about security failures and Director Kimberly Cheatle was forced to resign.
