[quote][B]A shooting has been reported outside the White House, according to US Park Police.[/B]Police told ABC News that a Secret Service agent shot an armed man at a security checkpoint near the building.
The White House was briefly placed on lockdown in response to the shooting. President Barack Obama was golfing in Maryland at the time.
The victim is being transported to a local hospital with critical injuries, authorities have said.[/quote]
Probably some mentally ill guy. Imagine the backlash if this turns out to be Isis related though
Most likely some sovereign citizen with a poor mental state if it was targeted at the White House itself.
[QUOTE=UncleJimmema;50359508]It could also just be a random/gang related shooting. DC has a notoriously high crime rate.[/QUOTE]
Or I guess this in any other case

What is it with the upper class and golfing? :v:
It could also just be a random/gang related shooting. DC has a notoriously high crime rate.

Probably not gang related. My assumption is suicide by cop in a spectacular fashion.
Other reports say it was on 17th and E, so a bit further away. But still at the gates.
