TRUMP IN DANGER! Steal computer with very sensitive information

The computer of a Secret Service agent containing the plans of the Trump Tower, as well as information on Hillary Clinton and Pope Francis, was stolen this Friday. According to CNN, if the data stored on the computer are published, they could compromise national security. The US Secret Service, in charge of the protection of the president and other officials, announced yesterday that it launched an investigation into the theft of one of its laptops, but did not specify what it contained. According to the CNN network, the device contained plans and projects for evacuation of Trump Tower, where President Donald Trump resided before his investiture. His wife, Melania, and their youngest son, Barron, still live in that building. According to the news channel, the computer would also have details of the investigation into the scandal of the private mail server of former Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. The Secret Service can confirm that an employee was a victim of a criminal act, for which a laptop computer from our agency was stolen, the agency wrote in a statement. There is an ongoing investigation, he added, without giving further details. According to the Secret Service, under the Department of Homeland Security, their computers are very secure, heavily coded, and are not authorized to contain classified information. According to CNN quoting without naming senior NYPD officers, the computer contained very sensitive information and was stolen along with other important documents from a Secret Service agent's vehicle Thursday morning in Brooklyn. The robbery was carried out by an individual who arrived at the place in another car and walked away, according to images captured by cameras in the area. Authorities have been searching for the computer frantically, and although some of the items stolen as a bag with the Secret Service badge have been found, the electronic device is still missing. The New York Police Department is collaborating on investigations and search. The data it contains, the computer, are very delicate and are looking like crazy, a police source told the Daily News. The revelation came on the same day that the Secret Service acknowledged that Jonathan Tran, the 26-year-old man who jumped the White House gate last March 10, wandered the grounds for 16 minutes before being detained. President Donald Trump was in residence at the time. Tran came through a trellis near the east wing of the White House before being captured, offering no resistance.
