A woman who was shot on Capitol Hill during a violent outbreak has died.
The woman was shot by law enforcement and taken to a nearby hospital, multiple law enforcement sources told WRCB and NBC 4. It’s unclear where in the Capitol building she was shot or why.
The Capitol Hill complex went on lockdown Wednesday after planned “Stop the Steal” protests devolved into a violent breach of the congressional building — smashing windows, breaking into offices, looting rooms, and forcing an evacuation of Vice President Mike Pence and lawmakers as staff and reporters were told to shelter in place.
