The White House and Congress were placed on lockdown, but the security precaution has since been lifted. The unnamed man was transported to a local hospital but his condition has not been revealed. A female bystander suffered minor injuries when police fired at the suspect.
Washington's city police called the shooting an "isolated" incident, and said there is "no active threat" to the public.
