The US secret service shot a man in front of the White House early Sunday, after a “armed conflict,” the statement said.
He earlier received a local police advice on a “suicide individual who may travel to Washington DC from Indiana,” the statement said.
Her cops approached the man who was responsible for that description, “who overturned the firearm,” adding that the shootings were fired. The man is now in the hospital in a “unknown” condition, said.
President Donald Trump was not in the White House at the time, because he spends the weekend in his residence Florida, MAR-A-LAGA.
“As police officers were approaching, an individual followed a firearm and followed by an armed conflict, during which our staff fired shootings,” the statement said.
The incident is now under investigation by the Washington metropolitan police, which investigates all shooting in the implementation of the Columbia law.
