The U.S. Secret Service has confirmed that it is investigating allegations of misconduct against one of its agents in response to an inquiry about a report claiming that the special agent in question groped a female staff member of Vice President Kamala Harris’s presidential campaign after getting drunk.

A Secret Service spokesperson told The Epoch Times in an emailed statement that one of its agents has been suspended amid a misconduct probe, after being asked for comment on allegations made in a Real Clear Politics report claiming that the heavily inebriated agent had forced himself onto a female Harris campaign staffer at her hotel room, allegedly groping her in front of witnesses.
