White House on lockdown after shooting outside, suspect down
PUBLISHED FRI, MAY 20, 2016 - 3:22PM EDT
A person who brandished a weapon outside the White House has been shot by Secret Service agents, prompting a lockdown at the presidential complex, reports say. The suspect has been critically injured. (more)
LIVE UPDATES: Twitter, Facebook
The shooting happened just after 3 p.m. ET on Friday when gunfire occurred at a Secret Service checkpoint near 17th Street NW and E Street NW. One person, believed to be the suspect, was rushed to a local hospital in critical condition.
CNN, citing a law enforcement source, said a person had approached a Secret Service checkpoint and brandished a weapon, after which Secret Service agents opened fire. A U.S. Secret Service spokesperson did not immediately return a request for comment.
As a result of the shooting, the White House was placed on lockdown. President Barack Obama was golfing at Joint Base Andrews and was not affected by the incident, while Vice President Joe Biden - who was at the complex - was said to be secure.
D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser said she was aware of the situation. "I've been briefed by my public safety team and they are coordinating w federal partners," she wrote on Twitter.
The White House has regularly experienced security scares over the past few years, though the incidents usually involve fence jumpers who are quickly taken into custody.
