The
White House was on
lockdown the night of May 29 in response to protests reaching the gates.
[2] The protests began at 7:00 p.m. By 8:30 p.m., the White House lockdown was lifted as protesters began to leave. At 10:00 p.m., the protesters returned, however by 3:30 am Saturday the protesters were more subdued. The protesters came into conflict with the
United States Secret Service. At one point the protesters were pepper sprayed.
[3] Protesters reportedly threw "bricks, rocks, bottles, fireworks and other items"[4] as well as "rocks, urine and alcohol"[5] at Secret Service agents injuring over 60 of them, including 11 hospitalized and treated for non-life-threatening injuries.

As a result of the protests, the Secret Service rushed President
Donald Trump to shelter in the White House underground
bunker, where he remained for almost one hour.
[7][8] This occurred after some protesters crossed temporary barricades set up near the Treasury Department buildings. Around that time, the Secret Service alert level was raised to "red". The president's
wife and son were also brought to the bunker.
[9] Trump later falsely claimed that he had only gone to the bunker for an "inspection", and also claimed that he was in the bunker "for a tiny, little short period of time".
[10][11] Attorney General William Barr later stated that the May 29 protests "were so bad that the Secret Service recommended that the President go down to the bunker".

Trump responded to the White House protesters on Twitter, saying that if they had crossed the White House fence they would have been attacked by "the most vicious dogs, and most ominous weapons". He also stated that "many Secret Service agents [are] just waiting for action", and accused the protesters of being "professionally organized".
[13]
The Secret Service reported that six people were arrested in
Lafayette Square within
President's Park, directly north of the
White House. The
Metropolitan Police Department and
US Park Police were also on the scene.
