Video shows reporter diving for cover as gunshots ring out at White House
A video by ABC reporter Selina Wang reveals the moment dozens of gunshots started ringing out just outside the White House.
"I was in the middle of taping on my iPhone for a social video from the White House North Lawn when we heard the shots," Wang wrote in a post on X describing the scene. "It sounded like dozens of gunshots. We were told to sprint to the press briefing room where we are holding now."
In the video, several gunshots can be heard while Wang is still talking. Only after they continue popping in the background does Wang appear shocked before she dives for cover and crawls away.
According to reporting by CNN, Secret Service officials were "investigating reports of shots fired at the corner of 17th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue Northwest, which is just outside the White House complex."
"One reporter said the sounds appeared to come from the Eisenhower Executive Office Building side of the White House complex," according to CNN. "Secret Service agents carrying rifles could be seen moving through the North Lawn area following the incident and blocking the White House press briefing room."
Journalists on the North Lawn had to rush into the White House briefing room, CNN reported. "Inside the White House, reporters were told to shelter in place as Secret Service agents shouted 'get down' and warned of 'shots fired.'"
