The United States Capitol was placed under lockdown on Friday afternoon after a car allegedly collided with one of the barriers surrounding the complex, injuring two officers.

There was an “external security threat,” according to Capitol Police. No one was permitted to enter or exit the building, and employees were advised to avoid all doors and windows. According to police, a vehicle rammed into two Capitol Police officers, who were injured and taken to the hospital. According to police, a suspect is in custody.

Two people were seen on stretchers outside the Capitol, according to a Fox News reporter, and a helicopter was seen landing nearby to respond to the incident.

The incident occurs as the Capitol’s security perimeter has been reduced in recent weeks.

A few hours later, The Guardian’s reporter, Joanna Walters stated that ”

According to unconfirmed reports, the driver of the car got out of the vehicle brandishing a knife after ramming the two police officers.

Two Capitol Police officers have been hurt. This is according to congressional sources on Capitol Hill. There is no information about the identity or gender of the driver of the blue passenger sedan. According to two law enforcement officials, the driver was shot by police and is now in critical condition in the hospital.”
