Via Washington Post:
A suspected robber was injured Tuesday afternoon after he jumped a fence near the White House to flee the scene of a crime, a spokesman for the U.S. Secret Service said.
The man was taken into custody shortly after he jumped the west fence of the Eisenhower Executive Office Building around 3:55 p.m., said Robert K. Hoback, an agency spokesman.
Hoback said in a release that an initial investigation indicated that the man was running from a robbery near the White House, in the area of G and 17th streets NW. He is scheduled to appear in Superior Court on Wednesday, Hoback added.
