Correspondents reported hearing multiple shots fired near the Eisenhower Executive Office Building.
The U.S. Secret Service was heard telling reporters to "get down," before the press were ushered into the James S. Brady Press Briefing Room in the West Wing.
Secret Service agents were seen on the grounds with their weapons drawn.
Hours before the alleged gunfire rang out, President Donald Trump announced the administration was close to finalizing a deal to end the war with Iran, noting he was in the White House Oval Office.

I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
