Donald Trump taps Sean Curran as next Secret Service Director; cites courage during assassination attempt

The Hindu  

U.S. President Donald Trump said on Wednesday he has selected Sean Curran to serve as Director of the U.S. Secret Service. Mr. Curran would replace Ron Rowe, who has served as Acting Director since July, when Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle resigned after the agency came under harsh scrutiny for its failure to stop a would-be assassin from wounding Mr. Trump during a campaign rally. Mr. Curran started his career at the Secret Service in 2001 as special agent in the Newark field office where he conducted protection, intelligence, investigations, recruitment and logistics support for the district, said the President. Mr. Trump said Mr. Curran served as assistant special agent in charge of the presidential protective division during his first term.
