A man was apprehended on Wednesday night after he jumped the White House fence.

It is the second such incident since last month when an armed man managed to sneak into the White House before he was detained.

According to Politico, Secret Service spokesman Brian Leary said a man he identified as Dominic Adesanya of Bel Air, Maryland, climbed the north fence line at about 7:16 p.m. and was taken into custody immediately by uniformed agents and K-9 teams that constantly patrol the grounds.

The intruder was reportedly unarmed at the time of his arrest.
