WASHINGTON, April 10: A man has been arrested after police say he made a bomb threat outside the White House. Police spokesman Araz Alali says the man approached an officer at the White House gates on Wednesday morning and warned that a bomb would detonate in a truck parked nearby. Surrounding streets and the entrance to a nearby Metro rail station were shut down as the Secret Service inspected the vehicle for explosives.
Streets were reopened after nothing dangerous was found inside the truck.
