Legal expert on White House warning to Democrats over possible Trump investigations

The White House is warning Democrats that threats to investigate the Trump administration could constitute an abuse of power as the new Congress prepares to take office. CBS News legal contributor Jessica Levinson explains.

On Thursday morning, a shooting incident occurred in Washington, D.C., in close proximity to the White House. The attack took place in Logan Circle, roughly one mile north of the presidential residence, according to local police. Police officer Nathan Clarke disclosed that specifics regarding the occurrence were still unclear, particularly the precise location of the incident.

However, authorities issued a warning to the public to maintain a distance from the 1500 block of 15th Street, which includes a VIDA Fitness center, St. Luke's Episcopal Church, and various residential structures. This area is also situated near a Whole Foods supermarket. Police swiftly cordoned off a significant portion of the affected block, while additional streets were obstructed to vehicular traffic.

The Federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) confirmed the deployment of agents to the scene to aid in the investigation.
