On Monday afternoon, Secret Service agents apprehended a man who managed to scale the Treasury building fence near the White House.
Secret Service agents ran across the White House compound to take the unidentified man, who was wearing a blazer and sunglasses, into custody.
The fence hopper was transported to the DC Metro PD’s 2nd District for processing for unlawful entry.
The Secret Service said in a statement to RealClearPolitics reporter Susan Crabtree:
“On Monday, September 29 at approximately 4:55 p.m., an individual scaled the fence on the southeast side of the U.S. Treasury Building and was arrested by U.S. Secret Service Uniformed Division officers for unlawful entry. He was subsequently transported to Metropolitan Police Department’s 2nd District for processing. There was no impact to our protective operations.”
