An unidentified individual hurled manure in front of national security adviser Jake Sullivan's home on Monday, initiating a response from the Secret Service and a bomb squad.

A law enforcement official told Politico that the suspect tossed a "small amount" of manure from a car window. The incident led to a quick response from the Secret Service and Washington, D.C., police with a bomb squad in tow.  

Secret Service spokesperson Anthony Guglielmi would not confirm the substance was manure but said they responded to a "suspicious package" near Sullivan's home.

"The Metropolitan Police Department's Explosive Ordinance Disposal team responded and declared the scene as safe," Guglielmi told the New York Post. "The incident is under investigation."

The law enforcement official also confirmed to Politico that an investigation was underway.
