WASHINGTON, July 2 (Reuters) - A man arrested for scaling the White House fence in October was sentenced in federal court on Thursday to time served in jail and a year of supervised release, prosecutors said.
Dominic Adesanya, 23, of Bel Air, Maryland, pleaded guilty in April to a charge of unlawfully entering the White House grounds.
Video had shown Adesanya punching a Secret Service dog and agents surrounding him on the north lawn of the White House.
U.S. Magistrate Judge Deborah Robinson set conditions for Adesanya's supervised release, the U.S. Attorney's Office said in a statement.
They include undergoing a follow-up interview with the Secret Service and staying away from sites under the agency's protection, including the White House.
The incident came about one month after U.S. Army veteran Omar Gonzalez climbed over the White House fence and entered the executive mansion with a knife. The high-profile security breach played a part in a leadership shake-up at the Secret Service.
The agency and the National Park Service began installing spikes on top of the White House fence on Wednesday in a bid to thwart would-be intruders.
