D.C. police spokesman Araz Alali said the man approached an officer at the White House gates Wednesday morning and warned that a bomb would detonate in a truck parked nearby.


Streets were reopened after nothing dangerous was found inside the truck.

The man has been identified as Krzysztof Wasik, 44, of Hazle Township, Pa. He has been charged with making felony threats and is being held pending a court appearance.

It wasn't immediately clear if he had a lawyer.
