It was worse than a bad hair day. Secret Service agents taped over a security camera and broke into a Massachusetts hair salon while securing the area for a Kamala Harris campaign event, according to the salon's owner. The intrusion happened on July 27, ahead of Vice President Harris's first in-person fundraiser since becoming the presumptive Democratic nominee. The owner of the Four One Three Salon, Alicia Powers, told Business Insider that she closed her Pittsfield, Massachusetts, business that day at the request of the Secret Service, which examined the area earlier in the week. The salon is located behind the Colonial Theatre, a performing arts space in the Berkshires, where Harris spoke. A Secret Service spokesperson told Business Insider that the agency's employees "would not enter" without the permission of the business owner, but acknowledged an agent taped over the security camera lens. |

She looked at the door. Then she looked at the security camera on the porch. Then she looked at the door again. "There were several people in and out for about an hour-and-a-half " just using my bathroom, the alarms going off, using my counter, with no permission," Powers said. Comments
