The United States Secret Service jumped into action recently when a trespasser made his way onto the North Lawn of the White House and ran for it. Luckily, this little toddler body didn’t pose much of a threat. Instead, it appears he was just too fast for his parents and slid right through the fence. He wasn’t too quick for the Secret Service, though, and officers nabbed the kid and brought him to safety.

“Just after 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday, U.S. Secret Service Uniformed Division officers observed a child slip through the White House north fence. Officers quickly reunited the child with their parents without incident,” Anthony Gugliemli, chief of communications for the United States Secret Service, said on X.
Social Media Users Laughed At The Secret Service Chasing The Kid
To many people, it was very obvious by watching a video on the incident that some members of the Secret Service have kids—and others do not.
ABC News shared the video on Instagram, and people quickly chimed in with their thoughts.
One person wrote, “1st Guy single no kids. 2nd Guy Married x2 kids.”
So many people agreed. Like this person who laughed, “Lol….the way the first guy is carrying him, clearly, he’s not a dad.”
This person defended the Secret Service officer and felt like he was just trying to protect the kid in his arms. “In defense of the way the first secret service is carrying the child… he is covered with weapons…not the easiest setup for carrying a child!”
So did this one, “The first guy is highly trained. Even when carrying a child, he makes sure he has one hand free, nothing to do with not knowing how to carry a child.”
Another Instagrammer made an interesting observation. “They have GQ models working in the white house… this is what I saw… Lol, now I want to visit, but I’ll wait. Lol”
