Large police presence around White House after reports of shots fired
Shots were fired on Saturday evening in the area near the White House, as President Donald Trump was working to negotiate a deal with Iran. Journalists who were on the White House North Lawn at the time were ordered to run and shelter in the press briefing room, while the surrounding downtown area was cordoned off. The Secret Service is still gathering information about the incident.
