On Wednesday, it was reported that an armed New York PD detective snuck past Secret Service into the Ryder Cup while pretending to be a part of President Trump’s security detail.
Detective Melvin Eng was in full tactical gear as he entered the Ryder Cup. According to The New York Post, Detective Eng also told people he was working for the feds.
Detective Eng was kicked out of the tournament after he dropped his magazine.
According to the New York Post, Eng was suspended without pay for his stunt.

The Secret Service said Detective Eng snuck into the Ryder Cup on a day that President Trump was not at the golf course, so USSS agents were not present.
“The NYPD officer in full tactical gear sneaked into the Ryder Cup tournament by saying he was part of a security team on Friday, a day Trump was not at the golf course — so it did not involve the Secret Service at all, sources familiar with the matter tell me,” RealClearPolitics reporter Susan Crabtree said on Thursday.
The Secret Service released a statement on the Ryder Cup incident:
“There are inaccurate reports in the press and on social media of an off-duty member of law enforcement attending the Ryder Cup during the President’s visit on Friday, Sept. 26. After a review by the New York State Police and the NYPD, it was determined this individual attended the Ryder Cup but not when it was under the purview of the U.S. Secret Service. We would refer any follow-up inquiries to the New York State Police.”
CORRECTION: The off-duty NYPD officer who sneaked into the Ryder Cup tournament did not implicate the @SecretService in any way because Pres. Trump was not there the day that happened.
