AGP Executive Report
Last update: 10 hours agoWhite House Security: A gunman identified as Nasire Best, 21, a Maryland man opened fire at a Secret Service checkpoint near 17th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue just after 6 p.m. Saturday. Secret Service officers shot and killed him in the exchange; a bystander was also hit, but officials haven’t said whether the person was struck by the gunman’s bullets or during the officers’ response. Trump was inside the White House and unharmed, and the incident triggered a brief lockdown and a major federal response. Prior Encounters: Court records say Best had multiple run-ins with the Secret Service, including a July 2025 arrest after he allegedly tried to enter a checkpoint, claimed he was Jesus Christ, and was later issued a stay-away order. Ongoing Investigation: The motive remains unclear as investigators continue to sort out what happened and the bystander’s condition. Maryland Link: The suspect’s identity ties the case directly to the state, with reporting citing mental health concerns and earlier detentions. Correction Needed: Details on the bystander’s exact injuries and how they occurred are still not fully confirmed.
