Police say a driver has died after a vehicle crashed into an outer perimeter gate of the White House complex. The incident was being investigated as a traffic crash.
Yeah, I wouldn’t bet the farm or anything. I had to dig up details elsewhere. I read that it was at a high rate of speed and at 10:30 PM. The traffic in DC during the day (what I was picturing) makes lethal speeds unlikely, but at that time on a weekend maybe it’s just drunk or otherwise reckless driving.
At any rate, no use jumping to stochastic terrorism without any details to support that. Still might be but I feel like we’d have heard something by now. I really hate the 24 hour news cycle that encourages this kind of zero information story just in case details come out later and this traffic incident somehow becomes important.
I wonder what the odds are? I think would be interesting given all the stochastic terrorism that’s been bandied about.
