Streets around the White House were closed Tuesday morning after a woman threw a package into the courtyard of the adjacent Old Executive Office Building.

The woman was taken into custody without incident and was being questioned by the Secret Service, said Darrin Blackford, a spokesman for the service. The package was being investigated but no immediate details were available.

The president was in the White House at the time of the incident.

Streets were closed along Pennsylvania Avenue, between 17th and 18th streets, and along 17th Street between State Place and H Street.

Trying to save money by tossing your packages out the window instead of using FedEx or UPS to deliver your packages in Washington is not a very good idea.

Maybe it was a box of veto pens.

If it's a pair of balls, she's a few years too late.

Not to speculate,
but, maybe Jimmy Carter
got dressed up in drag

and was tossing out
old packages of his "Whip
Inflation Now!" pins . . .
