That’s according to a person familiar with the matter who spoke to The Associated Press on Wednesday on condition of anonymity amid a chaotic situation.
The exact circumstances surrounding the shooting were unclear. The person said the victim had been taken to a hospital. Their condition was not known.
The shooting came as dozens of Trump supporters breached security perimeters and entered the U.S. Capitol as Congress was meeting, expected to vote and affirm Joe Biden’s presidential win.
KOL HAKAVOD when people unfit to lead are in place to become leaders we must protest. SHAme on you voters who are ready to have bad people represent us. I hope the saying “shomer pasaim HASHEM” will save us
why didnt they just use stink spray, cold water hoses or similar unpleasant but not lethal methods of dispersing the protestors like they do in Israel. Can you imagine the worlds outcry if Israel had done this? Expect another wave of Covid cases from this.
