    This is the best summary I could come up with:

    A U.S. Secret Service employee was robbed at gunpoint in Tustin, California, while President Biden was in the state for a glitzy Los Angeles fundraiser Saturday night.

    The Secret Service said the criminal investigation remains open and active.

    A source familiar with the investigation said the Secret Service officer was operating in a support capacity during Mr. Biden’s California trip, but he was off-duty at the time of the incident and was not a part of Mr. Biden’s protective detail.

    The Tustin Police Department said officers responded to a call regarding the robbery just after 9:30 p.m. and discovered the Secret Service employee’s bag was stolen at gunpoint and confirmed that an officer-involved shooting had taken place.

    A 2004-2006 silver Infiniti was seen leaving the area where the robbery took place, and police are seeking help from the public in identifying the perpetrators.

    Democrats raised a record $30 million over the weekend at the Los Angeles event that included a moderated conversation with President Biden and former President Obama, and an array of stars including Julia Roberts, Barbra Streisand, Sheryl Lee Ralph, George Clooney, Jason Bateman and Jimmy Kimmel.
