The toddler slipped through the White House gates on Wednesday, the Secret Service said in a post on Social Platform X.
“After 6:30pm on Wednesday, officers from the US Secret Service uniformed department watched the child slipped through the Northern White House fence. The officers quickly reunited the child with their parents.” I'll post it on x.
The child wearing a blue coat and red shoes can be seen in a video being carried by authorities.
This is not the first time a toddler has passed through fencing near the White House. In April 2023, a child passed through a metal fence on the north side of the complex and headed for the North Lawn before Secret Service picked him up.
About a month before President Trump's second inauguration, a person was arrested after attempting to climb temporary anti-scale fencing near the White House.
Before last Election Day, the Secret Service built an 8-foot metal fence around the White House and Treasury complex, along with the section near Lafayette Square, the Navy Observatory and the home of former Vice President Harris.
