A car crashed into a gate at the White House complex and is in custody, the Secret Service said on Monday.
The incident occurred shortly before 6 p.m. ET, according to spokesperson Anthony Guglielmi.
President Joe Biden was not at the White House but traveling to Texas.
“The driver has been taken into custody and we are investigating the cause and manner of the collision,” Guglielmi said.
The crash was cleared about 90 minutes later, and traffic closures at 15th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue were lifted.
Biden arrived in Dallas, TX at about 8 p.m. ET for the memorial service for former congresswoman Eddie Bernice Johnson.
