Two intruders, at least one of them armed, entered Joint Base Andrews on Sunday night, apparently after the return there of Vice President Harris, according to several accounts.
Early Monday, officials said the facilitys main gate had reopened after a full sweep of the base was completed. Officials said they confirmed that one of the intruders who was on the loose had departed the base.
The other intruder, a 17-year-old male, was arrested Sunday night and remains in custody, base officials said. He was carrying a firearm at the time of his arrest, according to base officials.
No shots were fired, and there were no reports of injuries.
The intruders drove a stolen vehicle through a security checkpoint at the main gate about 9 p.m. and failed to heed guards orders, base officials said late Sunday in a statement.

And vice-President Harris back from Alabama where she was openly insulted by a racist 'guvner'? It's not a stretch to try to understand the mindset of these 2 idiots. Put them in prison!!! Domestic terrorists.
