WASHINGTON, DC - Mitt Romney's trip to Washington wasn't without a little chaos.

The Secret Service arrested a man who ran up to Romney's SUV and shouted at him through the window as he pulled up to the White House.

Romney was there to have lunch with President Obama.

The man yelled, "Mitt, Mitt" and something else we can't quite make out before he was pushed away.

The Secret Service says the man became combative with uniformed agents.

They arrested him for assault of a police officer and unlawful entrance.
