Where did you read that? The reports I read all said he was outside the convention center while Obama was inside. No report I have seen has mentioned whether he was where he could be near the president as he arrive at or left the convention center.
Per the article linked in the opening post, the secret service said that the guy with the rifle "was not entering our site or otherwise attempting to" enter the site they were controlling for the president. Thus, they were not concerned and left it for local police to handle as they usually would.
