A shooting occurred near the White House
On the night of March 9, in Washington, a situation occurred where armed men were fired upon by U.S. Secret Service agents near the White House. This was reported by the agency's press secretary Anthony Guglielmi on his social media page.
According to NBC News, the incident took place that night. Local police had focused on a "suicidal person" traveling from Indiana to the capital. Secret Service agents noticed the suspicious individual moving on foot, and later his vehicle was also found. On the day the armed man approached, he drew his firearm, and then a shootout began.
The suspect was hospitalized, but no specific information about his condition has been provided yet. There were no injuries among Secret Service personnel. Currently, law enforcement agencies are conducting an investigation into the incident.
Additionally, last fall, when U.S. Secret Service agents spotted an automatic weapon among the bushes near Donald Trump's golf club, they opened fire there. The suspect fled, but was apprehended shortly after in a neighboring district. At that time, an "AK-74" type automatic weapon, an optical sighting device, two backpacks, and a GoPro camera were found among the bushes.
The investigation process is ongoing, and concrete information regarding the real motives behind this incident near the White House, their true purpose, and future security measures is expected to be developed.
