Capitol Hill police are expected to seek an arrest warrant next week for Rep. Cynthia McKinney of Georgia, who was involved in a physical confrontation with a Capitol police officer Wednesday, police and legal authorities said Thursday.
Officially, the investigation of the incident, in which the DeKalb County Democrat allegedly struck a police officer who tried to stop her from going around a security checkpoint, is ongoing, said Sgt. Kimberly Schneider, spokeswoman for Capitol Hill police.
However, police have notified the federal prosecutor's office in Washington that they will be seeking an arrest warrant after the investigation is complete next week, said police and legal authorities, who spoke on the condition that they not be named because the investigation was not yet complete.
McKinney ignored a reporter's questions Thursday as she walked into the Capitol, before word of the planned arrest warrant. She could not be reached for comment later Thursday. . . .

She'll cry racism, no doubt.
Of course. But when she and her father blame the Jews, as they so often do, that's not a race thing, eh, McNinney?
I was just reading a thread about grown up children. Where are the adults? I thing Washington DC should stand for Washington Day Care. What's next? Biting?
On Chris Matthews last night one of the guests said this was a racial thing, that congress critters walk around the check point all the time.
And whoever was talking said they were taking McKinney's side on this (I was in the other room and don't know who was talking).
First, why on earth are the other congress critters walking around the checkpoint? As I understand they've got some kind of dojobby that lets them walk through without a lot of bother. So what the hell?
Second, hitting a cop cannot in any way be condoned. Remember that the cop was just stopping McKinney for identification. I don't believe for a minute he did it just to harrass her. Maybe these capitol cops let congress critters through that they know but they damn well shouldn't. If they do than they've opened themselves up for this kind of thing.
Treat everyone the same, make a rule, and stick to it. The guy didn't know who McKinney was. Should he have just let her walk, la-di-da, right on through?
She should get busted just for that hair!

Running into one,hells bells! She ran OVER one!
HEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Too bad he didn't tase her - it might have shocked some sense into her!
Actually, judging by her hair, I'd say he did tase her.
Looks are not deceiving.
I woke up one day some years ago, with McKinney as my House Rep, having been represented by Newt upon retiring the night before. It was not a pretty thing. Fortunately, that redistricting was recently undone, and though in DeKalb, I am no longer in her district.
I have been following her for some time, and in fact organized a reasonably successful FReep of one of her events 4 years ago (I was on 2-3 local TV news channels' segements about the event, with a good sound bite from our side).
The woman is a complete moonbat with extensive Arab Islamic financial backing. Check her FEC reports some time.
if this was a security check point maybe there is film of it.
All she needs to do now is to come out with a gansta album and she'll be set.
My suggestion: Take her out onto the Capitol grounds, handcuff and blindfold her, then stune her beeber with a taser. Then release her back into the wild.
That was my 1st thought when I saw the picture.
If Chrissie and the Dems want to line up and defend nut-ball Cynthia, fine by me! Every time she openes her mouth she shows what an idiot she is. Keep this front and center for awhile. It helps her opponent in the coming election.
Could it be a Dem plot to get her out of office?
DANG! she's already a taser victim!
