A security breach at an office building on the US Capitol complex on Thursday included a number of missteps, such as Capitol Police failing to notice a handgun on the X-ray security screen and erroneously telling officers to look for a White woman instead of a Black man, sources familiar with the situation told CNN.
Court records allege Jeffrey Allsbrooks walked through security into the Longworth House Office Building with a firearm and ammunition, prompting a lockdown before President Joe Biden was set to arrive at another part of the Capitol later Thursday morning.
A criminal complaint says around 7:43 a.m. ET, Allsbrooks entered the Longworth building. Allsbrooks "put his backpack and other items through the X-Ray machine for security screening," and continued through the metal detector. The court records say Allsbrooks then picked up his belongings and walked into the building.

The governments of Mexico and the United States signed a memorandum of understanding on Thursday to fund and expedite several wastewater treatment projects in the Tijuana River basin. Untreated wastewater continually affects residents living along the river, which flows across the border from Tijuana and through several of San Diego’s southern neighborhoods.
