This is nbc nightly news with lester holt. Reporting tonight from washington. Good evening from washington where an embarrassed secret service has yet to fully explain how an intruder made his way from the street on to the white house grounds and through the front door of the most protected home in this country. It happened around 7 00 last evening. The mans sprint across the north lawn forced a rare evacuation of the white house and sent secret Service Agents and officers springing into action with guns drawn. The first family was not home at the time. Still the fact the intruder made it past the doorstep has put the agency in charge of their protection under harsh scrutiny. While there is late word this evening of yet another attempted Security Breach at the white house. Kristen welker has our report tonight. Reporter shocking moments posted on instagram when a man identified as 42yearold Omar Gonzalez jumped the white house fence friday night, ran the lengths of the north lawn and entered the unlocked front door of the first familys residence. Moments later a guard inside apprehended him. Its absolutely awful that a person could penetrate the residence at the white house. Reporter the chaos began just after the president and his daughters left for camp david. A former secret Service Special agent says its possible the breach happened because resources were focused on the president s departure. Because we were so heavy on our resources on the south ground that thats where the majority of the resources were, they didnt have the chance to come back north, and hence we had this jumper get closer than usual. Reporter in a statement the agency acknowledged the location of this individuals arrest at the white house is not acceptable to the secret service and will be closely reviewed. This ranks among the most unusual Security Breaches since the solahis managed to access a state dinner without an invitation. And when a small private plane crashed into the white house grounds during the clinton administration. Fencejumpers arent unusual here. In fact, just last week a man jumped over this fence, a height of about eight feet. But this is the first time anyone can recall someone making it all the way inside the executive mansion. And just this afternoon another man was arrested for trying to drive into the white house grounds. But fridays fence jumper is yet another blow to an agency trying to rebuild its image after a slew of embarrassing incidents including one in colombia in 2012 involving prostitutes. Some lawmakers were outraged today. Republican congressmen Jason Chaffetz called the white house breach totally unacceptable. The service will get it together, but they have to get it together really fast. We cant ever let this happen again. Reporter gonzalez is still in custody facing several charges including unlawful entry. Secret Service Director Julia Pearson has handled officer patrols and pennsylvania capabilities.
