In the early hours of Sunday, March 9, 2025, the U.S. Secret Service engaged in an armed confrontation with a man near the White House, resulting in the individual being shot and hospitalized.<\/p>\n

Incident Details<\/strong><\/span>
\nThe sequence of events began when local law enforcement in Indiana alerted the Secret Service about a “suicidal individual” who was possibly traveling to Washington, D.C. Secret Service personnel located the suspect’s vehicle near the intersection of 17th Street and F Street NW, approximately a five-minute walk from the White House.<\/p>\n

Upon approaching a person matching the description provided, the individual brandished a firearm, leading to an armed confrontation during which shots were fired by Secret Service personnel.<\/p>\n

Aftermath<\/strong><\/span>
\nThe suspect was transported to a local hospital, and their condition remains unknown. No injuries were reported among Secret Service personnel. At the time of the incident, President Donald Trump was at his Mar-a-Lago residence in Florida.<\/p>\n

Ongoing Investigation<\/strong><\/span>
\nThe Secret Service has stated that the incident is under investigation.<\/p>\n

Historical Context<\/strong><\/span>
\nThis event marks the second such incident near the White House during President Trump’s terms.<\/p>\n

In August 2020, a man was shot by the Secret Service after firing shots toward the White House before “running aggressively” toward agents, leading to his shooting.<\/p>\n

The full statement by the Secret Service is below:<\/strong><\/span>
\n“On Sunday March 9th, an adult male was shot by U.S. Secret Service personnel following an armed confrontation with law enforcement in Washington DC.<\/p>\n

Earlier on Saturday, local police shared information about a suicidal individual who may be traveling to Washington DC from Indiana. Around midnight, members of the Secret Service encountered the individual’s parked vehicle near 17th and F Streets, NW. They also saw an individual on foot matching the description nearby.<\/p>\n

As officers approached, the individual brandished a firearm and an armed confrontation ensued, during which shots were fired by our personnel.<\/p>\n

The suspect was transported to an area hospital and his condition is unknown. There were no reported injuries to Secret Service personnel.<\/p>\n

The incident is under investigation by the Metropolitan Police Department Internal Affairs Division’s Force Investigations Team, which investigates all law enforcement officer involved shootings in the District of Columbia.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
