Suspected Arrested by Secret Service After Climbing White House Fence

Charges are pending.

Officials say the Secret Service arrested someone who scaled the White House fence last night with a suspicious package. 

An agency representative told CNN that the intruder climbed the fence on the building's south side just before 10:30 p.m. According to the Associated Press, the Secret Service released a statement explaining that the person was arrested "immediately." (No surprise there, right?)

Furthermore, CNN adds that the suspect's name and gender have not been released, but charges against the individual are pending.
