Latest White House fence jumper has mental health problems
A man who jumped the White House fence Wednesday night suffers from mental health problems, and has been arrested in a previous security breach there, according to his father.
Dominic Adesanya, 23, of Bel Air, Maryland, barely made it onto the lawn before he was subdued as he fought off two police dogs, the Secret Service said.
Before officers moved in, Adesanya kicked a K-9 unit dog and punched another one. The two dogs -- Hurricane and Jordan -- were treated by a vet for minor injuries and cleared for continued duty by the Secret Service on Thursday morning.
Adesanya, who was wearing an ankle monitor when he jumped the fence Wednesday night, will not attend his bench warrant hearing in D.C. Superior Court Friday afternoon.
