According to SAEDNEWS, earlier today an armed man approached Gate No. 17 of the White House and fired three shots toward the building. Secret Service agents responded with gunfire and neutralized him. One bullet also struck a civilian during the exchange of fire.

Officials say the suspect never entered the inner perimeter of the White House. At the time of the attack, Trump was not in the White House.

The attacker was a 21-year-old man named “Nasirbest,” who reportedly suffered from severe mental health issues and had previously been issued a restraining order banning him from approaching the White House. Reports indicate he suffered from delusions and believed himself to be Jesus Christ.
