Man Arrested after Shots Fired near White House

A 21-year-old man was arrested in Pennsylvania following a shooting near the White House and the discovery of a bullet that struck a window of one of the world''s most closely guarded buildings, US authorities said. 
US President Barack Obama and his wife Michelle, who live in the White House with their two daughters and the first lady''s mother, were in San Diego, California at the time of the incident, which resulted in no injuries. Oscar Ortega-Hernandez was arrested by state police at a hotel near Indiana, Pennsylvania, shortly after noon on Wednesday, Secret Service special agent Edwin Donovan said. 
"Ortega-Hernandez is currently in the custody of the Pennsylvania State Police," he said. Authorities are investigating his mental health and said there are indications he believed his attack on the White House was part of a personal mission from God, according to a law enforcement official.
There are also indications the man had become obsessed with Obama and the White House, according to two officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because the investigation is ongoing. 
Authorities said the bullets discovered Tuesday by the Secret Service have not been conclusively connected with the reports of gunfire near the White House on Friday night. On Friday, authorities found an abandoned vehicle with an assault rifle inside.
