Uhall collides with a security fence in Lafayette Square near the White House.The driver was clearly carrying a Nazi flag

A U-Haul truck crashed into a security fence Monday night around Lafayette Square across the street from the White House, according to the Secret Service. The truck driver was arrested but appears to be carrying a Nazi flag.

The accident happened before 10pm Secret Service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi tweeted.

“No Secret Service or White House personnel were injured, and the cause and manner of the crash continue to be investigated,” Guglielmi said.

Law enforcement officers were seen inspecting the truck. After 11:00 p.m., the back door was opened and a robot was apparently used to inspect the inside for anything dangerous.

“Washington, D.C. Police have determined the truck is safe and a preliminary investigation indicates the driver may have intentionally hit the fence,” Guglielmi later tweeted.
