The spokesman for the secret service, Anthony Guglielmi, said that the young intruder was pressed through the fence on the North Lawn at around 6:30 p.m., about an hour after Trump had announced planned auto tariffs from the Oval Office.
“The officials quickly reunited the child with his parents without incident,” said Guglielmi in a social media contribution.
The video published in the social media shows an armed officer who wears a small child who carries a blue sweatshirt with a hood over the lawn before handing over the child to another officer.
Such interventions have already happened. In April 2023, a toddler pressed through the metal teeth, also on the North Lawn, and was later reunited with his parents, who were interviewed briefly.
