The Secret Service is investigating how a bullet hit an exterior window of the White House. A round was stopped by ballistic glass behind the historic exterior glass. The Secret Service also tells News4 that one additional round was also found on the exterior of the White House.

The investigation started after an incident on Friday night where gunshots were heard near the White House. Police have since been searching for a suspect in that case, 21 year old Oscar Ortega Hernandez .

Well if had any red, it might look like a giant tylenol. Looks like I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue.

Seriously? Drive by. It is DC, after all.

So they really don’t have a clear suspect, do they? Just potential links.

So, what's the big deal, #OWS? I thought you guys wanted a revolution? You do understand what that means once you raise arms against your own government, right?

If you don't, then just keep on shooting at state buildings. You'll get what you're asking for, and you'll get it good and hard. It won't be the adventurous, romantic thing you're imagining, either.

Nope OWS guy!

The White House has two sets of windows. “Original” single-pane at the exterior and high level ballistic glass at the interior.

It's quite close to the street and too easy for some nuts to roll up and spray it with auto fire.
