The Secret Service says a bullet hit a White House window, stopped by bulletproof glass.
A round of ammunition was also found on the exterior of the White House grounds, the Associated Press reports.
The Tuesday discoveries came after reports of gunfire near the White House on Friday.
This has all taken place since President Obama left for a nine-day trip to Hawaii, Australia and Indonesia.
White House
CAPTIONBy Ron Edmonds, APThe Associated Press reports:
The Secret Service says a bullet hit an exterior window of the White House and was stopped by ballistic glass.
An additional round of ammunition was also found on the exterior of the White House. The bullets were found Tuesday.
The discovery follows reports of gunfire near the White House on Friday. Witnesses heard shots and saw two speeding vehicles in the area. An AK-47 rifle was also recovered.
The Secret Service says it has not conclusively connected Friday's incident with the bullets found on the White House grounds. U.S. Park Police have an arrest warrant out for Oscar Ortega-Hernandez, who is believed to be connected to the earlier incident.
