美国特勤局一名发言人称，副总统 J.D. 万斯安保分队的一名人员正接受内部调查，且可能面临刑事调查，相关指控涉及危及行动安全与信息安全。
上周，《MSNow》刊发一篇报道称，副总统安保分队特工对仓促安排的行程满腹怨言，其中包括搭乘直升机送万斯的儿子去上高尔夫课。一名消息人士向美国广播公司新闻网透露，这篇报道引起了美国特勤局与联邦调查局高层的注意。
美国特勤局通讯主管安东尼・古列尔米表示：“副总统保卫分队一名人员正接受行政调查，同时可能启动刑事调查，指控内容涉及危及行动安全与信息安全。虽然我们不会就此事细节置评，但有一条原则毋庸置疑：任何可能威胁受保护人员安全的行为都绝不容忍。”
副总统办公室并未回应美国广播公司新闻网就安保分队负责人遭停职一事提出的置评请求。
此次停职事件发生之际，特勤局多名高层官员于周三向媒体透露，该局今年已处理一万起针对受保护人员的威胁案件，其中包括唐纳德・特朗普总统;官员同时指出，相关威胁在数量与复杂程度上均持续上升。
Member of Vance's protective detail under investigation, Secret Service says
A member of Vice President JD Vance's protective detail is the subject of an internal investigation and potential criminal inquiry "involving allegations of compromising operational and information security," according to a Secret Service spokesman.
Last week, MSNow published a story about agents on the Vice President's detail being "fed up" with the hastily arranged travel, including taking his son to a golf lesson on a helicopter. The story caught the eye of senior leaders at the Secret Service and FBI, a source told ABC News.
"A member of the Vice Presidential Protective Division is the subject of an administrative investigation, and potential criminal inquiry, involving allegations of compromising operational and information security," according to Anthony Gugliemei, the Secret Service director of communications. "While we will not comment on the specifics of this matter, one principle is unequivocal: any conduct that potentially threatens the safety of a protectee will not be tolerated."
The vice president's office did not respond to ABC News' request for comment on the detail leader's suspension.
The suspension comes as senior Secret Service officials told reporters on Wednesday they've handled 10,000 threat-related cases for their protectees this year, including President Donald Trump, noting the threats are increasing in volume and complexity.
