Authorities have identified the victim as USSS Uniformed Division Officer Arthur Baldwin, who had been assigned to the White House, NBC reports. The shooting took place around 2:45 p.m. on the 4700 block of 1st street.
Fox reports that Baldwin was off duty during the shooting; earlier this year he was put on leave and had his security clearance suspended following charges of first-degree attempted burglary and destruction of property over an April incident.
In a statement, the USSS said it was aware of the shooting and expressed condolences for the victim’s family.
