SMALL PLANE 'OFF COURSE' CAUSES RAW ALARM IN WASHINGTON... WHITE HOUSE, CAPITOL WERE EVACUATED... A guard in the West Wing of the White House shouted at reporters, "Go down into the basement." "Leave, run," security officers shouted to staff and reporters at the Capitol. "This is not a drill," guards shouted as they moved people away from the building.... location.

A pilot and a student pilot were released without criminal charges Wednesday after their plane flew within three miles of the White House, prompting evacuations throughout the capital, officials said.
