The gunman parked his black Honda directly south of the White House, in
the dark of a November night, in a closed lane of Constitution Avenue.
He pointed his semiautomatic rifle out of the passenger window, aimed
directly at the home of the president of the United States, and pulled
the trigger.
A bullet smashed a window on the second floor, just steps from the
