The U.S. Secret Service in recent years spent millions of dollars upgrading the fence at the White House to be more secure.
So a toddler walked right through.
The Hill reported the toddler squeezed through the fence and was able to get onto the grounds.
Secret Service officers eventually scooped him up and returned him to his parents outside the fence.
"The Secret Service Uniformed Division today encountered a curious young visitor along the White House north fence line who briefly entered White House grounds. The White House security systems instantly triggered Secret Service officers and the toddler and parents were quickly reunited," Secret Service chief of communications Anthony Gugliemli told The Hill
The report explained onlookers had noticed a fuss going on, and the child was seen being removed by officers.

It said access to the White House complex was restricted during the commotion.
The fence is some 13 feet tall, after a security improvement project nearly doubled its height following a series of breaches.
The upgrade was done in 2019 amid Secret Service concerns about the strength of the pickets, and the number of breaches.
The Daily Mail outlined how the upgrade that won't stop toddlers cost taxpayers some $64 million.
EDITOR'S NOTE: Question: Why do the political and corporate leaders of America – long the freest, most successful, most prosperous and most Christian nation in history – bow and scrape before China, a ruthless, communist, totalitarian and explicitly atheistic dictatorship openly committed to ruling the world, including America?
The astonishing answers come into focus only when one contemplates both the unprecedented level of political and financial corruption in America's ruling class (multiple Biden family members received $31 million in payola from China), and simultaneously the communist Chinese government's brilliantly devious methods of unconventional total warfare, by which China is stealthily infiltrating, subverting, corrupting and colonizing the United States of America.
The China threat has rarely been more dramatically or pointedly documented than in the sensational March issue of WND's critically acclaimed monthly Whistleblower magazine, titled "HOW CHINA IS CONQUERING AMERICA." Whistleblower is available in both the popular print edition and a state-of-the-art digital version, either single issues or discounted annual subscriptions.
