WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A 22-year-old man who was "not fully clothed" jumped the north fence into the White House grounds on Sunday and was immediately apprehended, the U.S. Secret Service said.

Justin Manuel Arrieta, of Cocoa Beach, Florida, was arrested for unlawful entry and taken for processing to the District of Columbia police department, Secret Service spokeswoman Kim Bruce said.

She said Arrieta was only on the grounds of the White House for a matter of seconds and there were no reports of injury. She declined to say what he was wearing.
