(KYW)-(PHILADELPHIA)-The Secret Service has issued an alert to all east coast law enforcement agencies asking them to be on the lookout for a man who is believed to be heading to the White House with explosives.

Investigative Reporter Walt Hunter has been told that Jeffrey Cloutier rented a white 2001 Chevy Cavalier with the Pennsylvania license plate of DVT-0196 from Enterprise Rental located just a mile from Philadelphia International Airport Wednesday morning.

However, he is not believed to have entered the airport area instead traveling south on I-95 towards Washington D.C.

The alert has been issued to all agencies between New Hampshire to Richmond, Virginia, for the man who may be traveling with a female friend, a dog, and an unspecified type or quantity of explosives.

Hunter reports Cloutier is not believed to have any links to terrorist organizations. Additionally, officials say, the suspect may have mental health problems and is likely wearing bedroom slippers.

If you have seen this vehicle or its occupants, call police immediately.

I see they included the usual standard line even though they haven't done a full investigation yet.
