Secret Service dogs foil White House fence jumper
The Secret Service used its K-9s Hurricane and Jordan to subdue Dominic Adesanya after he punched the dogs and breached the White House fence Wednesday night. Adesanya, 23, of Bel Air Maryland, faces multiple charges while the dogs were treated and cleared for duty. The incident contrasts with Omar Gonzalez 2014 breach when dogs were not released and spurred a leadership change.

Ottawa Parliament Attack Details Name Zehaf Bibeau
Police said the shooter acted alone in Ottawa, fatally wounding Cpl. Nathan Cirillo at the war memorial before targeting Parliament Hill. Michael Zehaf Bibeau, 32, born in Montreal, had applied for a passport and may have held Libyan citizenship while lingering in Ottawa since Oct. 2 to pursue travel. Security forces pursued background checks amid past arrests and possible extremist ties, and Parliament reopened with increased security as Prime Minister Harper vowed expanded surveillance and powers.
