A U.S. Secret Service agent assigned to protect former first lady Jill 
Biden accidentally shot himself in the leg at Philadelphia International 
Airport on Friday, authorities said.

Biden was not in the area when the agent was injured during a “negligent 
discharge” of his firearm Friday morning, Secret Service spokesman Anthony 
Guglielmi told The Associated Press. According to initial reports, the 
agent was traveling in an unmarked car when he accidentally discharged his 
gun shortly before 9 a.m., said Philadelphia Police Officer Tanya Little.

Other law enforcement officers came to assist the inured agent, who was 
taken to a local hospital. He is being treated for his injuries and was in 
stable condition, Guglielmi said.

Airport operations were not affected, said Heather Redfern, public affairs 
manager for the city's Department of Aviation.
