Harris posted on X that she had been briefed on the matter and was glad Trump was unharmed. “Violence has no place in America,” she wrote.
Trump was injured while addressing a crowd in Butler, Pennsylvania, on 13 July when a gunman, Thomas Matthew Crooks, fired at him with an AR-15–style rifle from the roof of a nearby building.
The shooting left one audience member dead, while Crooks, 20, was killed at the scene by a Secret Service sniper.
The Secret Service faced intense scrutiny over how the shooter from Bethel Park, Pennsylvania, was able to open fire on the former president.
The director of the agency, Kimberly Cheatle, resigned within two weeks of the incident.
