Nasire Best has been named as the suspect in the latest White House shooting, an attack on Saturday night that ended with a gun battle at the gates and the suspect fatally wounded. After exchanging shots with the Secret Service, Best was taken to a nearby hospital and later pronounced dead, turning a tense stand‑off into a fresh flashpoint over political violence and presidential security.
Reports confirmed that US President Donald Trump was inside the White House when the shooting took place. The POTUS later released a statement saying that the gunman had a violent history and a possible obsession with the White House.
