It appears that our forever POTUS might’ve been placed in harm’s way last week after an apparent lapse of Secret Service security. On Wednesday, TMZ reported that former President Barack Obama was sitting in the back seat of his SUV on Saturday (Sept. 21) outside of a popular Hollywood restaurant Mother Wolf when the incident occurred.

At around 7:30 p.m., an armed man allegedly approached Obama’s vehicle. He claimed to be a security guard for a bar mitzvah that was happening on the second floor of the establishment.

TMZ spoke to the man in question — who asked to remain anonymous — and he explained what went down. He claimed that he went outside because he was told federal agents were there but didn’t know why. The man told the outlet that when he walked out into the alleyway, he saw two men to his right who were Secret Service agents. He then spotted a black SUV that had Dept. of Homeland Security plates.

According to the guard, he had no idea Obama was inside until he got closer to the passenger side of the vehicle and saw the former president using a laptop. In a panic, he allegedly walked away from the SUV and then greeted the agents.

He said he walked past Obama’s SUV again before going back upstairs to the bar mitzvah. The guard recalled that a half hour later, his supervisor asked him to give up his credentials and license to carry a concealed weapon for the Secret Service.

Obama’s daughters Malia and Sasha later had dinner with their father at Mother Wolf that night. However, the security guard called what happened “definitely a security lapse on their part that there was no one on the backside of SUV, nor covering the stairwell.”

The Secret Service has come under scrutiny lately following two separate assassination attempts on Donald Trump.
