The US Secret Service became involved in a bizarre incident in which a gun belonging to Hunter Biden was dumped in a trash can behind a grocery store then found to be missing, the website Politico reported on Thursday.
The incident reportedly happened in late October 2018, when Joe Biden was out of office and not receiving formal Secret Service protection.
A spokesperson also said "Records confirm that the agency did not provide protection to any member of the Biden family in 2018, and that the Secret Service had no involvement in this alleged incident."
The website also reported that the gun was thrown in the trash by Joe Biden's daughter-in-law Hallie Biden, the widow of the president's son Beau Biden, a former Delaware attorney general who died of brain cancer in 2015.Hallie Biden and Hunter Biden were then in a romantic relationship, Politico reported.
Citing a Delaware police report, Politico said Hunter Biden told officers he used the gun for target practice.
The Politico report offers a taste of what may be to come when Hunter Biden releases a memoir next month.
Politico said neither Hallie Biden nor a lawyer for Hunter Biden responded to requests for comment.
