at least seven bullets struck the exterior of the white house on or near the truman balcony near the residence of the first family. officers heard 6-8 shots. officers were sitting on constitution avenue. they even smelled gun powder they were so close to the source of the gun powder. the white house had not been fired upon. it was probably a construction vehicle backfiring. the gunman had abandoned his car after a while, none of which was pieced together on the evening in question. it took four days for the secret service to determine the shots had hit the white house after a housekeeper had found broken glass on the truman balcony. the shots revealed another layer and the first family were at the residence at the time of the shooting with sascha obama arriving soon after. the first lady and the president were both furious. the shooter had managed to hit the white house from this distance. oscar ortega was charged with lesser charges but now is serving a 25-year sentence. >>> john, there is a lot to sort through here. but here's my first question. are what we seeing is that a secret

the shot apparently was not visible from the outside on the truman balcony. but you had to go on the inside to see a dimple in the ballistic glass. so still, though, a lot of questions also about censors on the windows of the white house and shot detection censors outside of the white house. why all these were either not in place or not working. >> all very shocking stuff. thanks very much. coming up later this hour, an intruder rushes into the white house, makes it all the way to the east room. brian todd is going to talk us through that breach that has lawmakers demanding answers right now. but let's get perspective from one of the lawmakers who was inside the hearing on these secret service problems, republican congressman mark meadows of north carolina is a member of the house oversight and government reform committee, he joins us live from capitol hill. congressman, what was your biggest concern heading into the hearing? was it addressed to your satisfaction? >> well, i think our biggest concern, all americans' concern is how could this happen, the most

office was preparing for the return of the president and first lady they identified damage on the truman balcony. that lead to further investigation and that lead to us contacting the federal bureau of investigation to initiate their full investigation. >> thank you. mr. cummings, thank you. in washington, d.c., and around the country there are number of systems we know. baltimore, i believe, has it too. they're basically microphones that hear gunshots, can identify the direction, can quickly, without human intervention, figure out whether or not a real shot has been fired, confirm it, and often give an accurate conviction. that technology isn't so odd that we don't see it in our city. i think that's the reason i went on so long with this question. miss norton i know knows this. the district has a sophisticated system. i think the committee wants to make sure not only does the white house have a higher level of awareness of the system but the district system be enhanced, if necessary, to make sure that something like this never happens again. i thank the gentleman for his patience. >> thank you

it reads, officer carrie johnson had heard debris fall from the truman balcony the night before.ned during the roll call before her shift saturday afternoon as superiors explained that the gun shots were from people in two cars shooting at each other. johnson had told people friday night she thought the house had been hit. but on saturday she did not challenge her superiors. for fear of being criticized. she later told investigators. that's what she said. what do you make of that? are we into a situation now where there's sort of a, don't ask questions situation, because you don't want bad pr, making the white house look more vulnerable than they wanted to look? >> i think that is one of the big concerns. i can tell you there was a robust exchange about that very point that you just mentioned. congressman cummings really after a series of tough questions about that, about the culture, about why that secret service agent that night didn't feel as though she could say, i did hear gun shots fired. instead that agent felt as though she had to leak it. she said it was a breakdown in t

whitehouse and found at least seven bullets had hit the building including in and around the truman balcony where the first family has been known to relax. only then was the fbi called in to investigate around the same time that ortega was apprehended in virginia. the obamas were furious and after the president returned home called then director mark saul have you been in a closed door meeting. tony told cnn service secrete director -- secret service director is looking into it. >> we will correct any problems. >> there was never any attempt to conceal information. jeff they said the this is tent was three years ago. they conducted a review and made several security recommendations including additional cameras and enhanced personnel. >> all right, julianna thank you. the midterm elections are just five weeks from this tuesday and republicans believe they can pick up the six seats they need to control the senate. congressional correspondent nancy cordes is on the trail covering these key contests. they joins us from general. can the key democrats hold the senate if they lose colorado? >> wel

the discovery came only after a housekeeper found broken glass on the truman balcony. >> there appears to be a bullet lodged in a windowsill. certainly a bullet hole in one of the central glass windows. that is, again, right outside the family's living room. >> sasha was home at the time with her grandmother. the president and first lady were traveling and didn't find out for several days. it was an usher who told the first lady, assuming she already knew. >> aides have described the president and she as both fuming. >> reporter: a secret service official says an investigation was launched immediately. other law enforcement agencies were notified. hernandez is now serving time in jail. >> i know the secret service is on top of this and will correct any problems. >> reporter: on capitol hill, deep concern. >> i got serious questions about the leadership and protocols of the secret service. they have had far too many problems. this is not something that's acceptable. >> that was kristen welker reporting. we should learn more about this issue tomorrow when the secret service testifies on

by the way, it was a house keeper who found shards of glass on the truman balcony that led them to make the revelation that shots were, in fact, fired. five days later the suspect in the case, a man identified as oscar hernandez was arrested. he was charged, by the way, and is currently serving up to 25 years in jail for the incident. apparently mentally ill. did have intentions to threaten and harm the president. i have reached out to the secret service. they are not commenting with the exception of this. they say rearen't commenting based on this incident three years ago. now in my discussion with officials with the secret service they say there was initial confusion that they were open about at the time. they did launch a swift investigation. they were able to take the suspect into custody. the other point the washington post makes is that the president and first lady were infuriated. look at this portion of the washington post report which describes just how upset the first family was. they say the first lady was still upset when her husband arrived home five days later from austral

one woman said she heard the sound of debris falling from the truman balcony above her head. there were people that worked for the secret service and were protecting the house that had a different impression but in the case of this officer, she said she was afraid to counter her superiors the next day. >> dan, again, you have no doubt that this was a fumbled investigation. >> no, no, it would be silly to say otherwise. they didn't catch the rounds for four days. but the officer on the ground, the rank and file. these were officers not agents. the agents were not at that scene as it happened, they were there later. but the officers did what they were supposed to do. they took out their weapons and took out what they saw. again it's a situation and i wouldn't be surprised at all if there wasn't some pressure on management level uniform division officers to, quote, make this go away. we don't want to make this look like an attack on the white house. i wouldn't be surprised at all. >> carol, incredible reporting, dan bonino, thank you as well. >>> we'll learn more when the secret

years, but if they are fooling around, i'm not as upset before he arrives as bullets hitting the truman balcony near the yellow oval room where the first family lives and not being discovered for four days. >> it's a shocking story. i can just say this. when you look at what their mission is, the secret service mission at the white house, it's kind of a no brainer. it's protect the president and his family and figure out the best way to do it. to think that this was so mishandled and it actually occurred, it's worrisome to me. and clearly congress will get involved, they were already calling hearings. we should do the oversight. in all sincerity, it's a straight forward mission. it's the white house. it's the family. there has got to be a better way to deal with it than they are now. perhaps they made some major changes and we can't talk too much about the changes. obviously we don't want to let everybody know what they do. if this wasn't a wake up call, i don't know what could be. >> i wanted to play some of a former secret service agent who describes the complacency to take hold. it's a frida

at least seven bullets struck the interior of the white house, near the truman balcony. according to "the washington post," shots were fired about 15 yards away from officers who were sitting in a chevy suburban near constitution avenue. they even smelled gun powder they were so close to the source of the gun fire. yet within minutes the supervising sergeant called out to stand down, that it was probably a construction vehicle backfiring. the gunman abandoned his car. it took four days for the secret service to determine that 14sho hit the white house after a housekeeper found broken glass. the shots failed to pierce another layer of bullet proof glass. "the washington post" reports the president and first lady was furious at the response. the shooter managed to hit the white house from this distance. oscar hernandez was charmed with attempted assassination and is now serving a 25-year sentence. joining me now, john tomlinson, retired from the secret service. john, there is a lot to sort there here. but here is my first question to you. what we've seen is that a secret s

>> the housekeeper was able to locate fragments of glass on the truman balcony, not an area frequented by security -- >> i didn't ask you about who was frequent. i asked you -- there was a spontaneous conclusion that shots were fired? there were officers who believed they smelled gun powder. there were -- your officers drew their weapons, director. that's how seriously they took it. >> all right. so joining me now, joe johns. so, joe, tell me about these off-duty, i don't know if they were agents or the officers protecting the actual building in front of -- what you're speaking. and this intruder. >> right. right. the information we've gotten from ted barrett, our senate producer on capitol hill. he's been told by a member of congress who is actually in a closed door briefing that there were, in fact, two secret service agents who had just gone offduty. they were downstairs, heard a commotion, went upstairs and assisted other members of the secret service in making the arrest. so that fills in a little bit more of the picture than we had when we started this day, especially because the

discovered after a housekeeper and usher found a broken window and bullet hole on the iconic truman balcony. the revelations put the secret service under scrutiny again, after a series of embarrassments over the last five years. in 2009 a pair of tv stars crashed a white house state dinner. in 2012 a dozen agents were dismissed after a prostitution scandal in many colombia. in march of this year, three agents were sent home and placed on administrative leave after one passed out drunk in the h hallway of the amsterdam hotel where the president was scheduled to stay. it begs the question, is it time for someone to be fired? members of both parties say the status quo is not sustainable. >> you can never, ever, ever make this mistake. we are great men and women out there serving in the secret service. but i believe the management, the leadership, the director is sending all the wrong signals. >> they need to have a come to jesus moment. clearly the secret service has not measured up to its reputation. >> nbc's chris jansing is live at the the white house and has been covering the story for us.

but the bullet you're talking about was one that hit around the truman balcony. the balcony famous at the white house. >> which is one of the favorite places of the first family. it makes them feel like they're more at home and relaxed. at any point they could be there. >> it's hard to see how he would feel that way after the incident. this was a bullet that did some damage to the glass and to a piece of concrete. and was discovered by a house keeper. not by the secret service. even though there was some attention to this incident internally at the time. it's one of the things that leads to more questions here. when we now know that the secret service knew there were other bullets that seemed to have been fired or maybe there was some incident there wasn't a full inspection at the white house after wards was a big question that people will be asking the secret service director. >> there are a lot of questions that can be asked about the fence jumper 2014. some of the behavior. we've seen in columbia, for example, and netherlands. going back to the leadership ques

four days later, alex, a housekeeper found shards of glass on the truman balcony and that's what secret service officials realized shots had been fired. they took that person in custody. ortega hernandez the very next day. that was after five days. now, the first family wasn't home. the only member of the first family at home at the time was sasha. the first lady, president obama not home at the time. they were traveling. but when they got home, they were apparently infuriated by this. and also, infuriated because they felt as though there was a delay in their finding out about the matter. so they had a meeting with then secret service director sullivan to discuss this incident. and, again, the frustration was that they weren't informed sooner. i've been talking to the secret service throughout the day. one telling me, quote, we aren't commenting beyond adjustments that were made to security postures based on this incident three years ago. so underscoring the fact that there have been changes made since that incident. this official also telling me, look, there was confusion at the time,

yet another secret service officer was stationed right next to the white house right under the truman balcony. she not only reacted to hearing gunfire but heard the shots hit the building and saw debris fall from the building where it had been hit. but somehow, despite all of that from their own people, the secret service's initial conclusion from some still as yet unidentified supervisor was that snow shots were fired. those must have been backfiring from a nearby construction vehicle. the secret service advised that and said gunshots have been fired but it had nothing to do with the white house. must have been two people in random cars shooting at each other somewhere in the neighborhood. perhaps rival gangs? this happened an a friday night in november 2011. friday. it was not until the following tuesday when a housekeeper at the white house found a chunk of concrete and some broken glass inside the first family's residence on the second floor of the white house. and other white house staff started to find the bullet holes. it was not until then that the secret service finally could be pers
