An armed man believed to be traveling from Indiana was shot by U.S. Secret Service agents near the White House after a confrontation early Sunday, according to authorities.
No one else was injured in the shooting that happened around midnight about a block from the White House, according to a Secret Service statement. President Donald Trump was in Florida at the time of the shooting.
The Secret Service received information from local police about an alleged “suicidal individual” who was traveling from Indiana and found the man’s car and a person matching his description nearby.
“As officers approached, the individual brandished a firearm and an armed confrontation ensued, during which shots were fired by our personnel,” the Secret Service said in a statement.
The man was hospitalized. The Secret Service said his condition was “unknown.”
The Metropolitan Police Department will investigate because the shooting involved law enforcement officers. A message left Sunday for the police department wasn’t immediately returned.

Sage Wisdom Peachy,
After Kammy’s Presidental Election Beat-Down by We, The American People, my old employee, Rick Whitaker, suffered from depression, and went off the grid by moving into the homeless camps around Nashville. Me and Rick’s Beautiful Wife spent many a night and day searching the camps for Rick to no avail. Just prior to abandoning the search one of the camp’s residents, “Crazy Joe”, was babbaling something like: “Indians In A, Indians in A, Indians in A” to me and Rick’s Beautiful Wife. At the time we just thought “Crazy Joe” smoked some bad weed again and wrote it off as just Joe’s random babbaling.
Thanks, Peachy for the tip on Rick’s current location, Rick’s Beautiful Wife says thank you,

Google is paying $27485 to $29658 consistently for taking a shot at the web from home. {fl-04} I joined this action 2 months back and I have earned $31547 in my first month from this action. I can say my life has improved completely! Take a gander at what I do..

Seems like mainstream media ignored or suppressed this shooting.
