A woman in Washington has been arrested after she intentionally drove a white van into a White House security barrier.
Her vehicle did not breach the barrier. The incident happened shortly after a meeting between President Trump and Australian Prime Minister Turnbull. The 35-year-old woman from Tennessee was charged with numerous criminal violations. The White House was put on a temporary partial lock down following the crash. CNN earlier said the woman's mental health is in question.
