The event took place at a venue located near the salon, so as-is customary, the agents conducted a bomb sweep on the business. Later the next day during the event, the salon's security alarm was triggered during this time when the agents continued to enter and leave the salon without any apparent concern for private property. The agents later apologized, but the owner of the salon felt violated and abused. Tim discusses the article and his embarrassment for some law enforcement officers.
