WASHINGTON — The Secret Service apprehended a man who had climbed over the White House fence — and a CNN crew caught the capture on tape.

The unidentified man was taken into custody Tuesday evening by Secret Service agents who guard the White House complex around the clock, Spokesman Ed Donovan says.
