The incident occurred at about 11:38 p.m. Friday when an unidentified person scaled an outer-perimeter fence while President Donald J. Trump was at the White House. The Secret Service also said it was near the southeast side by the Treasury Building and was arrested without incident by an officer in the agency’s Uniformed Division.
The person was carrying a backpack and was not identified. Secret Service said a search of the backpack and the grounds found nothing.
