White House Shooting Ties Suspect to Secret Service Encounters
A gunman opened fire near a White House checkpoint and was fatally shot by federal agents; court records show the suspect, 21-year-old Nasire Best, was previously known to the Secret Service for attempting to gain access around the White House and was involuntarily committed and later arrested in 2025. The White House was briefly locked down, a bystander was wounded, and the FBI is assisting the investigation. Trump praised law enforcement and security.
