Update - Man shot by Secret Service near White House is former boxer with rap sheet
2020-08-13
[WAPO via New York Post] The 51-year-old man whose shooting by the Secret Service disrupted President Trump’s press conference is a 6-foot-3 former licensed boxer who was previously charged with resisting arrest and disorderly conduct, according to a report.

Myron Berryman has been charged with assaulting a law enforcement officer after allegedly approaching a Secret Service agent Monday evening while claiming to have a weapon.

The officer shot Berryman in the torso when he "crouched into a shooter’s stance as if about to fire a weapon," officials said.
I'm going with "Suicide by cop" attempt
Berryman, who has lived in Dayton, Ohio, Forrestville, Maryland, and, more recently, Wheeling, West Virginia, was charged in 2012 with resisting arrest and disorderly conduct in Prince George’s County, the Washington Post reported.
