US Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle resigned following bipartisan calls after a 20-year-old gunman wounded Donald Trump at a campaign rally in Pennsylvania on July 13. Cheatle, who called the incident "the most significant operational failure" in decades, faced intense scrutiny for the agency’s inability to prevent the attack. The shooter, positioned on a nearby roof, was killed by a Secret Service sniper shortly after firing eight shots. Trump sustained a minor injury to his right ear. The attack also left two rally attendees wounded and a firefighter dead.
