The incident took place a few blocks south of the White House, along the National Mall and near the Washington Monument.
“One individual was shot by law enforcement; their condition is currently unknown,” according to the Secret Service.
Journalists at the White House were ushered into the briefing room for a safety lockdown as law enforcement responded.
An event with President Trump and small business owners went on as scheduled.
