23-Year-Old Nigerian Arrested For Jumping Into White House

Nigeria might have again found herself in the news for the wrong reason as 23-year-old Mr. Dominic Adesanya, was arrested by the United States Secret Service agents for jumping the North Lawn fence of the White House in Washington, DC on Wednesday evening.
Adesanya, a resident of the State of Maryland was immediately taken into custody after he was arrested unarmed. It will be recalled that the Head of the Secret Service resigned not long ago, following a breach in the White House.

The Anchor has gathered that Adesanya might face criminal charges anytime soon.

In a video of the incident, a man wearing a dark shirt and white gym shorts on the lawn outside the White House was seen being being yelled at by Secret Service officers. He briefly lifted his shirt to show his chest before a pair of Secret Service dogs rushed to the man and pounced.

The intruder struggled with the animals, landing repeated punches and kicks but, eventually, a Secret Service officer grabbed him from behind and effected his immediate arrest.

Shortly after the arrest, security officers began to clear the North Lawn of journalists and conducted a search of the premises to see if there was any harmful weapon that was hidden there by the accused.

Spokesperson of the Secret Service, Mr. Ed Donovan, issued a statement which reads: “At approximately 7:16 pm, an individual climbed the North fence-line of the White House. The individual was immediately taken into custody on the North lawn of the White House by Secret Service Uniformed Division K-9 teams and Uniformed Division Officers. The subject is being transported to a local hospital for evaluation.”
