You might have seen the "deepfake" video of Barack Obama unfreezing Joe Biden at the Peacock Theater in LA over the weekend, but did you hear the one about the Secret Service agent who was robbed at gunpoint in Orange County during that same trip?
Yeah, this actually happened. And I think if there's one crime in LA that will be reported to the FBI, this will be the one.
So here's the scoop: Biden arrived in LA from Italy on Saturday morning for a fundraiser and ended up staying at an undisclosed location that evening (likely in uppity Orange County). He was dropped off just before his 9 p.m. bedtime, and then 40 minutes later, believe it or not, this happened to an off-duty Secret Service agent.
A Secret Service agent was robbed at gunpoint over the weekend while President Biden was in Los Angeles attending a star-studded fundraiser, according to local police.
The incident occurred on Saturday at the Tustin Fields 1 residential community in Orange County at about 9:30 pm local time, the Tustin Police Department said in a statement on Monday.
The agent was able to fire their weapon at the armed robbers, who made off with a bag belonging to the agent, police said.
‘A member of the U.S. Secret Service was the victim of an armed robbery in Tustin, California late Saturday when returning from a work assignment,' Secret Service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi told The Post.
‘The employee discharged their service weapon during the incident but unknown if the assailants were struck,' he added. ‘We are thankful that the employee did not sustain any injuries.'
Bro, California is so riddled with crime we got the Secret Service agents of the most popular president in history getting mugged in Orange County.
Luckily, the local police were able to locate some of the agents belongings, but the street legend who just mugged a Secret Service agent is still on the loose. They're looking for an Infinity SUV, but my guess is it's stolen and will be found abandoned over in Torrance or something.
Here's the vehicle:
And think about this, if this criminal had been out just a half hour earlier, it's possible that he could've stuck up the president of the United States, Joseph Biden. That's not a huge stretch to make, and it scares the living daylights out of me.
California, what a great place to live!
