We are standing on the street in front of the White House in Washington DC.
Earlier in the year, a man named Dominic Adesanya tried the jump the fence surrounding the property.
Suddenly, he's back to try his luck again.
Adesanya scales the fence and is running across the north lawn of the White House when he comes face to face with the fastest member of the Secret Service security force.
Watch videos for the rest of the story.
Dominic Adesanya is quickly taken down by two security dogs while punching and kicking them before being arrested by the Secret Service. He is briefly hospitalized from dog bites to his arms, back, chest and knee.
Adesanya is ordered by a judge to a mental health facility.
Discuss the importance of service dogs in protecting the White House.
Here is some additional information to guide your discussion.
The service began its canine program in 1975 because it was found to be the most effective way of detecting explosives, it says on its website.
The dogs stay with their uniformed division handlers 24 hours a day and “become members of the family,” the service said. They stay with their handlers after retirement, generally at about 10 years of age.
