[QUOTE] An unidentified man was arrested Saturday outside the White House after driving up to a gate and refusing to leave, less than 24 hours after another man jumped the fence and got inside the presidential residence before being arrested, according to the Secret Service. The second incident occurred at about 3 p.m. when the man approached one of the White House gates on foot. He later showed up at another gate in a car and pulled into the vehicle screening area, said agency spokesman Ed Donovan. When the man refused to leave, he was placed under arrest and charged with unlawful entry. The suspect has been identified as Kevin Carr from Shamong, N.J. Bomb technicians, fully suited, could be seen looking through a white four-door sedan with New Jersey plates and pulling out what appeared to be keys. Streets near the White House were temporarily closed as officers responded, but the White House was not locked down. The first family had left for a weekend trip to the presidential retreat Camp David, in western Maryland. The incident Friday occurred at 7:20 p.m. on the north side of the White House, about four minutes after President Obama, his two daughters and a friend departed in helicopter Marine One from the South Lawn. First lady Michelle Obama had traveled separately to the retreat. The suspect has been identified as Omar J. Gonzalez, 42, of Copperas Cove, Texas, according to the Secret Service, which also said he was unarmed when apprehended. The agency has started a full investigation, amid intense criticism about the incident and other White House security breaches. A former Secret Service agent told Fox News that if an intruder is not armed, then agents are “not supposed to shoot him." The ex-agent also said a sure-footed intruder can jump the fence and reach the front doors in about five seconds, especially if he or she enters between the two front gate command posts. "It's not a hard thing to do,” the ex-agent said. Gonzalez was arrested and taken to George Washington Hospital for medical evaluation, said agency spokesman Brian Leary. He also said Gonzalez ignored commands to stop and continued through the doors. [/QUOTE] [url]http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2014/09/20/white-house-fence-jumper-sparks-evacuation/[/url]
Of course you don't shoot an unarmed man.
[QUOTE=TheNerdPest14;46034664]Of course you don't shoot an unarmed man.[/QUOTE] Debatable.
Would anyone be raising a fuss if the runner was shot dead though?
at first I thought it said "White, House Intruder" like the title was specifying that he was white, so I got confused about the presidential doors part.
I thought the white house had a force-field
[QUOTE=UberMunchkin;46035106]What if he has no arms but is holding a gun with his feet [editline]21st September 2014[/editline] bet the secret service never thought of that[/QUOTE] Well he'd still be awkwardly trying to jump the fence.
[QUOTE=UberMunchkin;46035106]What if he has no arms but is holding a gun with his feet [editline]21st September 2014[/editline] bet the secret service never thought of that[/QUOTE] Then it would probably take him significantly longer than 5 seconds to hop to the front doors.
[QUOTE=tirpider;46034703]Would anyone be raising a fuss if the runner was shot dead though?[/QUOTE] Oh im sure most of FP would be against it because hating cops is cool. Seriously unless you are mentally handicap everyone knows there are things you just don't do because you will be shot.

Okay we will leave you with a warning this time"
Better restart the mission Agent 47, otherwise you wont get the Silent Assassin rating.
Also even if he's unarmed you could never know if he had a bomb vest on under his shirt or something until he was at the front door and pulling the detonator.
Obviously the White House needs to spend a few million on turrets.

They even have a plan for if the girl scouts turn into a terrorist splinter cell group.

My good friend went to school with this guy it turns out. Said he never expected him to try and break into the white house, that being said I don't think I'd ever expect anyone to try and do that besides liek james bond.

Title made me think he was hiding in the presidential residence for 24 hours. :v:
According to prosecutors the jumper had 800 rounds of ammunition in his car
