Drone hovering over White House panics US Secret Service Agents

Washington DC: A small Drone flying over White House created panic among US Secret Service Officials, in a scene similar to Hollywood movies. The agents spotted the flying object over Lafayette Park next door hovering at an altitude of about 100 feet. They have detained an individual and ordered the drone be brought down.

That individual, whose name wasn’t immediately released, was handed over to the custody of U.S. Park Police.

The drone was removed as a precaution and was later declared safe.

It’s not the first time the Secret Service has had to deal with a UAV near the White House.

In January, an employee of a U.S. spy agency crashed his small drone on the White House grounds.

This latest incident is likely to raise more questions about the president’s security.
