NBC News reported the D.C. Capitol shooting started when the woman tried to ram her car, with her baby inside, into a White House gate.

Authorities said the Secret Service chased her and she exchanged gunshots with police near the Capitol.

She was shot and died less than an hour later.

According to NBC News, her child is OK.

They said an officer was injured during the chase.

Her identity has not yet been released.

WASHINGTON (CNN) - Gunfire erupted Thursday near the U.S. Capitol, bringing a swarm of emergency vehicles to the heart of the government in response to an emergency that locked down Congress.

Police also closed Pennsylvania Avenue in front of the White House.

CNN’s Athena Jones, who was at a Senate office building near the Capitol, said she heard gunshots that sounded like fireworks.

The FBI dispatched units in response to reports of shots near Garfield Circle, which is on the Senate side of the Capitol.

CNN Chief Congressional Correspondent Dana Bash learned that one person was injured.

No further details were immediately available.

House and Senate sessions were immediately suspended.

A Capital Police bulletin said reports of gunshots required “all occupants in all House office buildings to shelter in place.”

“Close, lock and stay away from external doors and windows,” the bulletin said.

Authorities later lifted the lockdown, Bash later reported.

UPDATE 2:11 p.m. – The lockdown has been lifted at the Capitol.

UPDATE 2:08 p.m. – Shooting and danger is over at this point, according to Washington authorities. Now the investigation will begin.

So far, no word on the shooter’s identity or motive.

UPDATE 2 p.m. – Many of those responding to the emergency scene are not being paid for it because of the government

UPDATE 1:57 p.m. – NBC News reporting shooting started at White House and continued more than 10 blocks to the Capitol.

UPDATE 1:50 p.m. – Washington authorities said they have a suspect in custody.

A CNN photojournalist said he heard at lease a dozen gunshots at the corner of Constitution and Maryland.

Authorities said one officer has been injured.

They have not confirmed if he was injured by a gun shot or another way.

WASHINGTON – The Capitol is on lockdown after police said shots were fired outside the building Thursday afternoon.

The Associated Press reported police said one officer has been injured.

TL;DR: Some crazy lady with her baby in the car tried to ram a security gate at the Whitehouse, Secret Service Police chased her, she tried to ram them with her car (there's video footage of this) and they eventually shot her dead somehow.

Sorry I had to, couldn't resist :)

 

I'm not going to start a war about how its because Americans carry guns and its stupid blah blah blah, we all know the internet fight about it. (well people on youtube do)

This sh... happens in the UK too just without guns, instead we get "religious" nutcases who butcher soldiers to death with machete's. Yes it did happen.

 

Its unfortunate that we have so many people in the world who are so anti-everything that they feel the need to be a massive boob. :/

It is my understanding that FBI, Metropolitan police, secret service, and other fire and ems responders have been effected by the government shut down and will continue to get paid. Seems like the news needs to fact check a little.

Metropolitan Police and Fire and EMS are paid by the DC local government, which has a contingency fund that they're using to continue full operations despite the federal shutdown (it's a complicated interplay, where DC has some local powers but Congress still has essentially full control). Every single FBI Special Agent is considered "essential", as is 92% of the Secret Service (and I assume the 8% who aren't are civilian employees, not so much the sworn agents and UD officers). Even when the government shuts down, law enforcement and public safety generally stay running; in '95, when the DC government did shut down, the only people who still came to work were police, fire, and EMS.

How stuff works for "essential" employees: They aren't getting paid right now. Supposedly they will get paid once the government shut-down ends. But that could be weeks from now. And landlords don't wait. They want their money now. Not whenever those fat, old, cheap suit wearing house & congress motherf******s decide to go back to work.

No motive behind the lady's actions yet, although supposedly the FBI was investigating her in her home state of Connecticut. Also she had a 1 year old child in the car when she started the pursuit and when she was shot to death. The child is unharmed according to Secret Service Police. One officer totaled his cruiser (a new looking CVPI) on either a gate or a billboard and had to be extracted with the jaws of life.

I saw a picture of the smashed CVPI and just figured it was another chase, not a chase through DC with shots fired. Glad to hear the kid was OK, but it's sad that the baby's mother chose to do what she did, as the child won't have a mother anymore. As for the gov't shutdown; the opposite of a pro is a con. The opposite of Progress is Congress.

So you have like 50 police cars and everything from the FBI to the MPD to the secret service involved and they can't even get her alive?  Crazy.

Probably because they believed she was a immediate threat to national security. Most likely deadly force was authorized from up above.

That is indeed crazy. I mean, they didn't even know whether she was armed...
