A man was arrested at the White House and charged with trespassing Saturday, one day after an intruder scaled the fence along its perimeter and gained access to the building.

The Secret Service sent three agents home from the Netherlands just before President Barack Obama's arrival after one agent was found inebriated in an Amsterdam hotel, the Secret Service said on Tuesday.

A Secret Service agent on Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney's campaign plane accidentally left a gun in the plane's bathroom. The gun was discovered in the restroom by a reporter traveling with Romney shortly before he departed the Republican convention in Florida to address the American Legion convention in Indianapolis on Wednesday.

A homeless man was in custody on Tuesday night after climbing over the White House fence. The man was immediately captured by uniformed Secret Service agents, who guard the complex round the clock, said agency spokesman Ed Donovan. He had a backpack that Donovan said was being examined for possible explosive material.
