WASHINGTON - The driver of a silver sedan was arrested after crashing his car into a placard just north of the White House, and authorities also arrested a second man who jumped a barricade at a nearby park, according to a report by Karoun Demirjian in The New York Times.
CBS News, in a video report, described a separate account of the vehicle. Its summary said a car jumped the curb outside the White House and rammed into a pedestrian area while the president was at home. The segment's title said the car plowed onto a sidewalk near the White House, and it also reported that a man jumped over a security barrier nearby, as stated in the CBS News video summary.
The two accounts differ on where the car stopped and what it struck. The Times described a placard just north of the White House, while CBS described a curb jump and a pedestrian area outside the building. Neither outlet's summary, as reviewed here, reports whether anyone was injured.
Both outlets described a man jumping a barrier near the White House, but they differ on the details. The Times said the man jumped a barricade at a nearby park and was arrested. The CBS summary said only that he jumped over a security barrier nearby and does not say whether he was arrested. The CBS summary also does not say whether the two incidents were connected.
CBS also reported that President Trump spoke with reporters on Monday, when Nancy Cordes asked him about his immigration policy, according to the segment summary, which said Cordes reports from Washington, D.C. The summary does not say whether the president addressed the incidents at the White House.
Neither The New York Times nor CBS News, in the summaries reviewed for this story, names the people arrested or states any charges against them.
