It was seen there that the driver got out of the car after hitting the security post. After that he clashed with the security personnel. It is learned that the driver has already been arrested. However, his identity has not yet been revealed. But it is not yet clear what caused the car to lose control and hit the security post. Whether it was a mere accident or there was some other motive behind it, is being investigated.
Unclear what happened but someone just drove into a sign on the north end of Lafayette Square Park and then fought with Secret Service and National Guard when they got out of their car.

Lafayette Square is located on the other side of Pennsylvania Avenue, directly opposite the White House. It is an important and sensitive site adjacent to the office and residence of the President. The entire area was cordoned off after the car accident. Many security personnel have been deployed. Secret Service officials are also present. A temporary lockdown has been issued in the White House and surrounding areas.
