The Secret Service suspended six people without pay after the assassination attempt on President Donald Trump last July, an official with the agency told NBC News.

Following an investigation into the assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania, in which a gunman's bullet grazed Trump's ear, the agency issued the suspensions, which included both people in supervisory roles and line-level agents. The suspensions ranged from 10 to 42 days without pay. It is unclear when the agents were formally suspended.
