White House intruder was in possession of knife




42-year-old Texas man Oscar Gonzalez, who managed to scale the White House’s outer fence and run to the doors of the building before getting caught, was found to be carrying a knife.

Secret Service have released a statement to say that the fact this man was able to get that far unchecked is totally unacceptable. Security will be stepped up in the wake of this incident.

Gonzalez faces up to 10 years in jail if convicted of unlawful entry and possession of a deadly weapon.
