Bullet Struck White House Window, Secret Service Reports

   VOA News

   The U.S. Secret Service says a bullet has struck an exterior window of
   the White House, but was stopped by bullet-resistant glass.
   The Secret Service, which is tasked with protecting the U.S. president
   and other top officials, began investigating after reports of gunfire
   near the White House on Friday.
   Police have issued an arrest warrant for a 21-year-old man who is
   believed to be connected to Friday's incident, but the Secret Service
   has not made a definite connection between that incident and the
   bullets found at the White House.
   An additional round was found outside the White House. Both discoveries
   were made on Tuesday.

   Some information for this report was provided by AP.
