A security guard shot a man who was trying to get into WTTG, the local Fox station in Washington, D.C., Monday afternoon. The suspect, whose name was not released immediately, said he wanted Fox 5 to make contact with President Donald Trump.

D.C. police said the man was trying to get into the building on Wisconsin Avenue NW at Harrison Street. He broke out the glass of two windows or doors and was able to enter the building.

A female security guard tried to subdue the man with pepper spray but the man continued to act aggressively. The guard then shot him inside the lobby of the studio, authorities said.
