A Nigerian man based in Maryland, Dominic Adesanya, (pictured above) has been arrested after jumping the White House Fence. According to police reports, around 7.15pm yesterday Wednesday October 22nd, Adesanya, 23, climbed the fence on the North Lawn of the building and got about 20 yards past the fence before he was taken down by Secret Service and dogs.
Adesanya was taken to a local hospital and the two dogs were taken to a vet for injuries sustained during the pummeling they took from the fence-climber.
The episode came after an intruder armed with a knife scaled the White House fence on Sept. 19 and sprinted past uniformed guards, making it all the way inside the White House.
The failure led to the resignation of then-Secret Service Director Julia Pierson.
