Not sure what was wrong with this guy, but he had to have been a few cards shy of a deck.

 

White House fence jumper killed in Pennsylvania court attack

 

(Reuters) - A man arrested for climbing a White House fence earlier this year was shot and killed at a suburban Pennsylvania courthouse on Tuesday after he sliced a sheriff's deputy with a knife, the local district attorney said.

 

Curtis Smith, 34, is accused of entering the lobby of the Chester County Justice Center at about 11 a.m. and slashing a sheriff's deputy on the arm or hand, Chester County District Attorney Thomas Hogan said in a statement.

 

A second deputy in the lobby drew his weapon and shot Smith, who was treated at the scene but later died at Paoli Hospital, Hogan said.

 

"The armed attacker was immediately neutralized by the sheriff's deputies," Hogan said in a statement.
