Capitol lockdown: 1 officer dead, 1 injured after car rams into barrier; suspect killed by police

Capitol car crash is the latest threat to security at the complex

The United States Capitol was locked down on Friday due to an "exterior security threat" after a car rammed into a barrier on the Senate side of the complex. One officer died and another was injured, according to United States Capitol Police (USCP), who said the suspect was killed by police after he exited his Navy Sedan and attacked them with a knife.

Fox News is told security officials believe the suspect was a "lone wolf," not connected to any other group.

"Man, we just shot somebody," an officer told Fox News.

Metropolitan Police Department Acting Chief Robert Contee said in a briefing the attack did not appear to be terrorism-related and the suspect had no known connection to a member of Congress. The suspect was not known to police.

Acting USCP Chief Yogananda Pittman said the suspect had exited the car, knife in hand, and "lunged toward" Capitol Police.

"Due to an exterior security threat, no entry or exit is permitted at this time in any building in the Capitol complex," a voice announcement throughout the complex sounded earlier Friday afternoon.

"According to The North Face, his "use of the South Butt & design mark and the Never Stop Relaxing tagline [was] not defensible as a parody[.]""

I suppose some exercises could be viewed as relaxing, some not.

Yeah and a ‘lone wolf’

Doesn’t mention that the leader of the wolf pack is Black Muslim leader racist anti-”termite” Calypso Louie.

Lone wolf and not terrorism my butt.

This would seem to indicate this was not a white person.

He is what used to be called a Black Muslim

A follower of Louis Farrakhan, an anti-Semite racist who's followers are told that he is Jesus.

This is terrorism, and racism as the cops are white.

Navy is a shade of blue. I wonder, did the stealthy journalist put that data in to create some agenda point?

A reporter with an agenda? Oh my, how can that be!

Both this and the CO shooting are already out of the news cycle.
Having a Muslim perp magically does that, even quicker if also a POC.

Obviously he was not connected to BLM in any way shape or form, simply because,.....

its settled science, (like climate change, the "armed isurrection" or COVID19)

most likely these recent Capitol deaths were all COVID related
