The White House was placed on lockdown Friday afternoon after one person was shot by law enforcement near the premises, ABC News reports.
The president was not at the White House at the time of the shooting, which occurred at 17th and E streets. Vice President Joe Biden was reportedly "within the complex" at the time but is "secure," a spokesperson said, according to the network. Capitol Police are monitoring the situation, but currently Capitol Hill remains unaffected by the incident, and all buildings are open at this time with no changes to security.
