NBC News posted video showing armed police officers approaching the building, which lies on Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington, according to the Washington Times. Fox News later confirmed that police have cleared the building, saying the report came from a third-party call. (RELATED: Active Shooter Reported At YouTube HQ In California)
