The U.S. Secret Service said Wednesday an individual was arrested for dropping a backpack and jumping a bike rack near the White House.

The incident took place on the sidewalk of Pennsylvania Avenue, which passes by the White House, the Secret Service said on social media, adding pedestrian traffic is closed off near the White House.

U.S. President Donald Trump is believed not to be in the White House at the time of the incident. Trump is expected to arrive in Washington later in the afternoon after his two-day tour to Florida, during which he held a rally officially kicking off his re-election campaign.
