The White House did not immediately provide any reason for the lockdown, however, reports from the scene indicate a suspicious package was found in Lafayette Park.

The park is across the street from the White House. Park and Pennsylvania avenues have been closed as a result of the incident. The Washington D.C. fire department is on the scene, as are bomb technicians.

PghBaldy :" Obama should invite the cause of the lockdown to the WH as a teachable moment."

..and then ask for a larger fence around the Rainbow Hut
not that fences do any good,.. especially on the Southwestern border !

Keep it locked! Put a sign on it “Do not open until January 2017” and put one on the House and Senate too.
