An active-duty soldier, Pfc. Benjamin Del Real Jr., was severely injured by a bullet during a shooting outside the White House and plans to sue the Secret Service for $25 million, accusing them of failing to protect bystanders. The shooter, Nasire Best, was killed by Secret Service agents, but it remains unclear if their gunfire caused Del Real's injuries. The Secret Service has not confirmed responsibility, and the investigation is ongoing.
