Another one?

The Washington Post has an article by Peter Hermann, Clarence Williams, and Fenit Nirappil about yet another idiot trying to take on the White House:

A Secret Service agent shot and critically wounded a man Friday afternoon who approached a guard booth outside the White House and refused to put down the pistol he was carrying, according to law enforcement officials.
Lines of tourists were frantically ushered away from the area as heavily-armed police converged on the security shack near 17th and E streets NW, which is outside the secure perimeter and accessible to the public. The White House was put on lockdown, and Vice President Biden was secured inside the complex, authorities said. President Obama was golfing at Joint Base Andrews at the time.
Authorities said the man, who was shot once in the chest, was hospitalized in critical condition. Two law enforcement officials identified him as Jesse Olivieri, a Pennsylvania man in his thirties. His relatives could not immediately be reached to comment.
Police released no other details about him or an apparent motive. Authorities discovered ammunition for a .22-caliber weapon inside the man’s white, four-door sedan, which was parked near the scene, according to two law enforcement officials.
The apparent attempt to breach the White House grounds is another in a series of security incidents in recent years at or near the presidential complex. It took place against a backdrop of heightened global tension brought on by terrorist attacks and the ongoing wars in the Middle East and Afghanistan, and as officials were investigating the crash of an Egyptian passenger jet over the Mediterranean Sea.
Law enforcement officials said there was no immediate sign that the incident, which occurred just after 1500, had any links to terrorism.
The Secret Service said in a statement that the man approached the security gate holding a gun and that “officers gave numerous verbal commands for the subject to stop and drop the firearm. When the subject failed to comply with the verbal commands, he was shot once by a Secret Service agent and taken into custody.”
Officials said they recovered the man’s firearm.
Baltimore, Maryland resident Akil Patterson, who was in a security line for the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, said he saw an officer come through a side door and overheard radio chatter: “Shots, shots fired, suspect down, suspect down.”
Jaspreet Singh said a friend, Ranjit Singh, texted him: “A cop shot a guy.” In his text, the friend said he saw a man with a gun in his right hand walking toward a police officer before he was shot.
Federal agents with the Washington field office of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives were helping to trace the weapon, according to an agency spokesman. Officials said that the man’s car was found parked near 17th Street and Constitution Avenue NW, and an officer spotted the ammunition through a window.
Law enforcement officials noted that the man did not gain access to the White House complex. After the incident, police blocked streets between 16th and 17th Streets NW, along with parts of the Mall near the Washington Monument. A helicopter circled overhead as tourists, office workers and people with White House appointments were quickly ushered away.
People have tried to reach the mansion’s grounds for years for a wide variety of reasons. Some suffered mental illness, others wanted to make a political statement, and some sought notoriety. One person this year allegedly climbed the fence to try to escape apprehension in a series of robberies he had just committed.
The Secret Service last year added small spikes, “pencil points”, to the top of the six-foot fence that surrounds the White House complex after a series of incidents in which intruders climbed the fence. Last month, the agency announced a plan to raise the height of the security fence to eleven feet by 2018.
Perhaps the most serious breach was on 19 September 2014, when Omar Gonzalez climbed over the north fence and made his way deep into the White House. When he was finally tackled by an off-duty Secret Service agent in the ornate East Room, he was found to have a knife in a pants pocket. Two hatchets, a machete and eight hundred rounds of ammunition were found in his car nearby. Secret Service Director Julia Pierson resigned two weeks later.
But there have been recent incidents as well. Last month, a man threw his backpack over the north fence and climbed over. He was immediately arrested. On 7 March 2016, a man in a hoodie climbed over a smaller first barrier, but was tackled and arrested before he could reach the fence. In November of 2015, a college student draped in an American flag climbed over the spiked White House fence while the first family was inside the residence celebrating Thanksgiving.
Friday’s shooting was being investigated by several Federal agencies though, by evening, DC police had assumed command because of involvement by a law enforcement officer. The Secret Service will determine whether the shooting met its standards for using deadly force; DC police, along with prosecutors, will investigate whether any laws were broken.
Jason Wilson, visiting from Detroit, Michigan to collect a President’s Volunteer Service Award, said he heard one shot while he and colleagues were standing near 17th and F streets NW. “We were hoping it was a blown tire, but it wasn’t,” he said. “Within a few seconds, police were rushing down the street, telling us to move away.”
Trabian Shorters, head of an advocacy group whose members were waiting in line to enter the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, was also among those in the area.
“They started yelling for everyone to clear the canopy and get to the street,” Shorters said. “They were very emphatic. It was clearly very serious.”

Rico says its nice the Secret Service is getting a lot of target practice, but he's sure they're tiring of it... (And didn't this all start during the Truman presidency?)
