(Washington, DC) -- A man allegedly pretending to be a Secret Service agent got past security at the Department of Health and Human Services and made it all the way to the sixth floor suite of offices that includes Secretary Kathleen Sebelius'.

Authorities arrested 46-year-old Frederick Nickerson on Tuesday and charged him in the incident, which happened last Saturday.

He'll be in court next week.

Security officials say Nickerson flashed what looked like a Secret Service badge as he walked by and said he needed to see Sebelius.
