Reinoso was still dealing with the fallout of the robbery yesterday morning when he arrived at the D.C. government building and was stopped by a security guard.

"Sir, I need to see some ID," the guard said.

"I don't have any identification," Reinoso replied. "I was held up at gunpoint last night."

The guard did not back down and waited for Reinoso to produce identification.

"I'm the deputy mayor," Reinoso pleaded. Then he pointed to a Washington Post reporter standing nearby and said, "She can vouch for me."

"Can you vouch for him?" the security guard asked.

"Yes," the reporter said, and Reinoso was able to enter the building.
