Dogs take down White House fence-jumper

Dogs take down White House fence-jumper

The Secret Service has finally done something right.

Agents and their dogs stopped a 23-year-old man who scaled the White House fence Wednesday, about a month after another trespasser managed to make it all the way inside the presidential mansion.

The agents unleashed two Secret Service canines, who quickly attacked Dominic Adesanya of Bel Air, Md., on the North Lawn of the White House after he allegedly tried to climb the fence at around 7:15 p.m.

Adesanya angrily fought back against the dogs — punching, kicking and body-slamming the feisty pooches — before the agents descended on him.

The interloper was unarmed, a Secret Service spokesman said. Charges were pending Wednesday night.

Adesanya was taken to a local hospital and the two dogs were taken to a vet for injuries sustained during the pummeling they took from the fence-climber.

An Instagram image posted Tuesday by Adesanya contains the message “ImpeachObama.”

“So whyd you jump the whitehouse fence bro??” a user posted on his account Wednesday night. “You crazy or are you crazy?”

The episode came after an intruder armed with a knife scaled the White House fence on Sept. 19 and sprinted past uniformed guards, making it all the way inside the White House.

The failure led to the resignation of then-Secret Service Director Julia Pierson.
