A U.S. Secret Service (USS) agent assigned to former First Lady Jill Biden’s protective detail accidentally shot himself in the leg by mishandling his weapon, the agency said.

Biden was not near the incident Friday morning when an on‑duty Secret Service agent accidentally shot himself in the leg while assigned to escort the former first lady at Philadelphia International Airport, the USS confirmed to the Daily Caller.

The agent “suffered a non-life-threatening injury following a negligent discharge while handling a service weapon at the Philadelphia International Airport during a protective assignment,” the Secret Service said in a statement to the Caller. “There were no reported injuries to any other individuals and the special agent is being evaluated at an area hospital in stable condition.”

The Philadelphia Police Department said emergency medical personnel took the agent to Penn Presbyterian Medical Center, where he was reported to be in stable condition, according to ABC News.

The department said the scene remains under investigation, but airport operations have not been affected. 


The Secret Service’s Office of Professional Responsibility “will be reviewing the facts and circumstances of this incident,” the agency told the Caller.
