White House intruder sentenced to time served, supervision
WASHINGTON
A man arrested for scaling the White House fence in October was sentenced in federal court on Thursday to time served in jail and a year of supervised release, prosecutors said.
Dominic Adesanya, 23, of Bel Air, Maryland, pleaded guilty in April to a charge of unlawfully entering the White House grounds.
Video had shown Adesanya punching a Secret Service dog and agents surrounding him on the north lawn of the White House.
U.S. Magistrate Judge Deborah Robinson set conditions for Adesanya's supervised release, the U.S. Attorney's Office said in a statement.
