A Maryland man jumped the White House fence and ran onto the
North Lawn before being subdued Wednesday night.
Dominic Adesanya, 23, stood on the North Lawn around 7.16pm,
gesturing and lifting his shirt, before being taken down by K-9 units and
subdued by the Secret Service.
His father spoke with ABC 2 and said Adesanya had been
arrested at the White House before and that the family had tried to get him
help.
On the lawn, Adesanya kicked a Secret Service K-9 unit that
ran at him before another dog wrestled him to the ground and he was taken into
custody.
'Dogs got him,' a spokesperson for the Secret Service told
Reuters after the incident. The White House was put on lockdown for a little
over an hour but was not evacuated.
Adesanya's last post to Instagram on Tuesday showed an I
Voted sticker captioned 'Voted for this B #ImpeachObama.'
Other photos show him in action for Stevenson University in
track and field, or showing off his physique in shirtless selfies.
Speaking with ABC 2, Adesanya's father said his son had been
arrested at the White House before and that he wanted to speak to the president
about how people were out to get him.
