White House shooter dead, bystander shot

The 21-year-old who pulled a revolver out of a bag and opened fire at Secret Service agents outside the White House died after being shot, according to CNN.

CNN gave an update based on a statement from the Secret Service. Two people had been shot and wounded during an "encounter" with Secret Service, CNN reported earlier, but law enforcement later confirmed that one of the people shot was a bystander, who was hit by crossfire.

The shooter died while in the hospital, according to CNN reporters, adding that the bystander is in "critical condition."

Reporters broke the news earlier in the day as dozens of gunshots could be heard ringing out in the background. More information about the shooter has not been released by law enforcement.
