Burying the lead

Secret Service took four days to realize White House had been shot.

"A fascinating Washington Post piece today [recounts] how it took four days for the Secret Service to even realize that someone had fired shots at the White House and that seven bullets had struck the upstairs residence in 2011.…
"Once the Secret Service actually started investigating, they quickly realized this was no small matter, finding $97,000 worth of damage."
-Emphasis added.

If you’re keeping score at home, that's $13,857.14 worth of damage per bullet.

Really.
