WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. Capitol was briefly evacuated Wednesday evening after police identified an aircraft that they said posed “a probable threat” — but the plane was actually carrying members of the ***** U.S. Army Golden Knights *****, who then parachuted into Nationals Park for a pregame demonstration.

I’m surprised they didn’t wave the plane on in. Wasn’t Pelozi there to give them instructions?

Glad they didn't overreact.

Police say ‘no threat’ at US Capitol after evacuation. Evacuation at the U.S. Capitol caused by U.S. Army team skydiving into stadium for the Washington Nationals.

It was the Golden Knights parachuting into Nats Stadium.....
