Washington, DC: The US Secret Service shot a man near the White House shortly after midnight on Sunday following an “armed confrontation” with law enforcement.
At the time of the incident, President Donald Trump was in Florida. The shooting occurred about a block from the White House, near the west side of the Eisenhower Executive Office Building. Earlier, local police had warned the Secret Service about a man, allegedly suicidal, who was traveling to Washington from Indiana.
Around midnight, Secret Service agents located the individual’s parked vehicle near 17th and F Streets NW and identified a person on foot matching the description. Fortunately, no Secret Service personnel were injured during the encounter. The Metropolitan Police Department will lead the investigation, as they are the primary agency responsible for use-of-force incidents within Washington, DC.
