Police and fire department units have cleared the scene. We still don’t know what was found. The details of the package, if it was anything, are unknown at this time.

UPDATE: Suspect in custody. This person scaled the fence at the Treasury Department and dropped a bag on the sidewalk, near the wall that's adjacent to the White House (via Fox News):
The U.S. Secret Service confirmed Sunday evening that a person is in custody following reports that a suspicious package was found near the White House.
"At approximately 2:30 p.m. on Sunday, July 27, 2025, U.S. Secret Service Uniformed Division officers immediately apprehend [sic] an individual who climbed a fence on the southeast side of the U.S. Treasury Building," the federal law enforcement agency told Fox News.
The suspect allegedly dropped a bag on the sidewalk adjacent to the fence line of the building, which is located adjacent to the White House.
That prompted a response from the Metropolitan Police Department’s Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Team, who cleared the item.
The suspect was transported to a local hospital for a medical evaluation, and will face charges for unlawful entry, as well as fugitive from justice stemming from a warrant in a different jurisdiction.
