Cocaine discovered in the White House on Sunday was found in a cubby hole in a West Wing entry area where visitors place electronics and other belongings before going on tours, a source familiar with the matter said on Wednesday.

The Secret Service is investigating the matter, the White House said. “They're checking visitor logs and ... looking at cameras. Those are the next steps. Cross-checking,” said the source.

Asked whether anyone had undergone drug testing as part of the investigation, Jean-Pierre said: “We will take any action ... that is appropriate and warranted, pending the outcome of Secret Service.” The West Wing is attached to the executive mansion where President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden live.
