A curious toddler on Tuesday earned the title of one of the tiniest White House intruders after he squeezed through the metal fencing on the north side of the executive mansion.
U.S. Secret Service Uniformed Division officers, who are responsible for security at the White House, walked across the North Lawn to retrieve the tot and reunite him with his parents on Pennsylvania Avenue. Access to the complex was briefly restricted while officers conducted the reunification. Officers briefly questioned the parents before allowing them to continue on their way.
Secret Service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said officers "encountered a curious young visitor along the White House north fence line who briefly entered White House grounds."

I think the guards were protecting the baby from Biden.
Did the Capitol cops take him to the white house so Biden could sniff him?
Good thing that the kid wasn’t wearing a MAGA hat....otherwise he/she would have gotten the Ashli Babbit treatment.
Insurrection!
Pedo Joe can sniff out a baby from across the Mall
What kind of parents allow a toddler to do this?
Good thing it wasn’t “TOT-DROID” loaded with interesting materials.
Noted response time, number of agents activated and level of force.
Will try again when he is five with better tactics when Bad Orange Man is president.
All they need do is to tack up a five foot wall of Chicken Wire and secure it to those iron posts.
I’m sure no Chickens will be offended.
He is a toddler when potty training is questionable. Sniff at your own risk.
Parents who take their eyes off them for 10 seconds. In other words, every parent.
The baby knew someone with a similarly limited grasp on reality was inside and willing to do a little babble talking.
Squirrel.....
Move along.
There is nothing to see here.
If you look away from some toddlers even for seconds, they can get up to absolute mischief.
When the secret service guys were working on this case they miss what else was going on.
I’ve been at the White House late at night on Penn. Ave., and spoken with SS guys.
They were friendly, and would talk to you - but even when they spoke with us, they never took their eyes off of what was going on in the surroundings. They always know what’s going on.
I think this is a cute story. The little kid has curiosity and initiative; and we need that in coming generations.
LOL, yes indeed.
Rig up some remote controlled diaper pins/hooks, and just when the Secret Service gathered around, release the pins causing a diaper drop-off and POW!, laid out SS Agents!
Hey, it could happen ....
These days, it’s much safer to let your toddler crawl into a gorilla enclosure.
Thankfully, the child was okay. There are registered sex offenders in that neighborhood.
