A man was arrested by the police in Washington DC after he tried to enter the presidential residence, known as the White House, naked.

The unidentified man is said to have insisted that he had an appointment with President Barack Obama.

On being rebuffed by security officers, he stripped naked and tried to jump over the fence but was swiftly apprehended by Secret Service agents.

The unidentified man left nothing to the imagination as he stripped all the way down to his socks at one of the security gates at about 3 p.m. after he was denied entrance to the White House, according to the Daily Caller.

The man was adamant that he had a 3 p.m. appointment with the President Obama as he yelled and removed his boxers, the Caller reported. That was seconds before his naked body was tackled to the ground.

The officers clothed him with a simple blanket and packed him away into the back of a van.

The man was taken to a local hospital for minor injuries, reported the Washington Post.
