Ohio Man Indicted For White House Security Breach

A federal grand jury has indicted a Kettering man who allegedly crashed his SUV into steel barriers at the White House last month, and jumped a fence. Secret Service agents say 32-year-old Joseph Reel was attempting to spray-paint a "Don't Tread on Me" snake on the White House. Agents say they found more than 200 rounds of ammunition in the vehicle. A trial date is pending. Reel has posted two videos on line featuring him making an anti-government rant and delivering a message to his infant son.
