a helicopter�*s summoned and lands in front of the capitol building. e national guard, which has been on duty since the capitol riots of january the 6th, is mobilised. another terrifying moment for those who work in the congressional offices. at a hastily organised news conference, confirmation that one of the police officers has died as well. and it is with a very, very heavy heart that i announce one of our officers has succumbed to his injuries. but the assailant doesn't seem to have been on anyone�*s radar screens, and police are saying there doesn't seem to be an ongoing threat. it does not appear that he is known to the capitol police or the metropolitan police department at this time. sir? is this a terrorism—related incident? _ it does not appear to be terrorism—related, but obviously we'll continue to investigate to see if there's some type of nexus along those lines. it was only a few days ago that some of the intense security around the capitol, following january's shocking assault, was eased. just a week ago, the driver wouldn't have been ab

that's the live scene from the capitol building. one of the entrances, the roads to it. the driver of that car is dead. he succumbed to his injuries have to shot by one of the capitol police officers. but also sadly we were informed today that two officers that were hit by that car has also died from his injury. the second is currently being treated. we have no further information, personal information until the next of kin have been informed. to remind you if you're just have been informed. to remind you if you'rejustjoining us here on bbc news, a car has driven through a barricade outside the heavily guarded us capitol building in washington. hitting two police officers, shots were then fired as the car hit that barricade, you can see on your screen. the suspect was apprehended and himself as well as two officers were transferred to hospitals, different hospitals and critical conditions. one officer was later pronounced dead as was the suspect. the capital precinct was put into lockdown and congress is currently on recess. president biden left washington earlier today

there is the capitol building. you can't really tell much from this shot, but reports suggesting that two police officers have been injured. also reports of gunfire in the area. these are just reports, i have to reiterate. we don't know exactly what happened, but there are reports that there has been some sort of gunfire in the area, and our north america editor saying reports of shots fired as well. the camera is moving a little bit closer into the capitol building. as i mentioned earlier, this is the scene from january the 6th of the riots. they were all over the news at the time, and it was basically president trump supporters breaking in and riding throughout the us capital, and since then it has to be said the security has been tightened in the area. the streets surrounding the capital and the congressional office buildings are currently in lockdown. nobody is allowed to enter those streets and nobody is allowed to go out of the streets. there is a huge, heavy police presence in the area. that is according to

it also contains other key sites around the capitol building, including the us supreme court, the libraryive shop of the capitol building. we haven't got a shot that takes a closer to what's happening, but we do know that reports are suggesting that the area around their is currently in lockdown. what we know so far from reports their is currently in lockdown. what we know so farfrom reports is their is currently in lockdown. what we know so far from reports is that a car has tried to crash a barrier into one of the security barriers around the capitol building, that is the latest we are getting on the situation. as i mentioned, there were protests on the 6th of january in that area which led to crowds of trump supporters breaking in and rioting throughout the us capitol. since that day, which of course is the country's most important building, there has been very much heightened security around the building. the latest we are getting now is that two police officers who were guarding the area at the time have been hit by a vehicle. that same vehicle which reportedly drove into security ba

stormed the capitol building in januy. we have been here before. lunchtime on a cold day in another emergency at the capital. a man in a blue car rams two capitol police officers. as he gets out of his vehicle with a knife in hand, he is shot. congress goes into lockdown. a helicopter lands in front of the building. the national guard, which is been on duty since the attack of january 6, is mobilized. another terrifying moment for those who work in the congressional offices. at a hastily organized news conference, confirmation that one of the police officers has died. >> is with a heavy heart that i announce one of our officers has succumbed to his injuries. reporter: the assailants does not seem to have been on anyone's radar screens. police say there does not seem to be an ongoing threat. >> does not appear he is known to the capitol police. it does not appear to be terrorism related. we will continue to investigate. reporter: it was only a few days ago that some of the intense security around the capital was eased. what

it reminds everyone that the capitol building is still a target, and the chief of police urged peoplehe family members of police officers in mind. she said this is a difficult and tryingime for them. host: the capitol police representative was also asked about weapons that may have been seen within car. talk abo that. >> they said he was armed with a knife that he brandished and because he was lunging toward the police officers, they shot him. in terms of other weapons, i don't have much on that. that is part of the investigation as well as figuring out how he got into a position to be able to take action despite heightened security. we are told that the security posture of the capitol police is going to remain the same. we have not been told of any increase. the national guard is deployed and has been since january 6. they activated an emergency response team. some of this fencing around the building had been taken down around the outer perimeter because it has been quiet here since january 6, so this is a jolt. host: we also know that security threats and monitoring are taking place

system inside the capitol building for all senate and house members and everyone inside to duck and take cover right now the whole area around the capitol is still on lockdown but streets have been beginning to open up and you'll see here as you look at the capitol and then even just the gardens in front of the capitol depending upon what side of this barricade you're on behind the capitol still very much an active crime scene in front of the capitol it looks as if nothing even happened we actually had passer bys come up to us and say are they shooting a movie here what's going on not even realizing that this all went down so again depending upon what side of the barrier you're on here is depending upon the mood that's happening here you know but again this all going down the national guard now retreating back into the capitol building but what's ironic union is just last week we had the outer perimeter that had the razor wire that was guarding the capitol and this was put up after the january 6th and surrender that fencing was taken down last week this now an incident almost less than a

the same is true here at the capitol building, there was no fence whatsoever.ou could actually talk to high-end politicians walking in and out, taking a lunch break in the sun. and this has dramatically changed after january 6. and that is what many washington -- why many washington residents really want to defense to come down, because they wanted to go back to their normal kind of relaxed life. and this happen soon again, what we are experiencing right now. clare: that is the promise of american democracy, that anyone can walk up to their lawmakers in the halls of congress and take their interest and pleas to the nation's lawmakers. and that is, as you say come over the questions that will be asked, how could something like this happen after the tightening of security measures following the storming of the capitol by armed insurrectionists in january? was the response at least faster, relatively speaking? >> much so. there are still federal agents based in washington, more than 2000 after january 6, and after the inauguration of joe biden and kamala harris, t

and the capitol building following the death of police officer william evans. the suspect was killed during the attack. the author of the article we just read from rollcall is with us. we will talk to katherine tully-mcmanus about what she is finding out about what is going on in the capital. good morning. guest: good morning. host: what is the latest we know following this attack? guest: what we know, i a lot of what is in that piece about the attack itself. the surviving officer who was injured in that attack is in stable and nonwhite threatening -- nonlife threatening condition. unfortunately officer evans did die. the other officer is expected to survive. host: what are we hearing from members of congress? congress was not in session when this happened. guest: it was a recess week and a friday, which would have missed congress even if it was in session. i spoke to congressman tim ryan at a press conference virtually. he is the chairman of the legislative branch appropriations subcommittee. he is in charge of funding and oversight of the capitol police depar

came really close it's only a couple of 100 yards before the capitol building where this character that's up with this man where the car god stubs that is to be on is quite surprising how close. vehicles can already get again general thinks is not so far away or so it's not so long over so this movie is probably a question we will hear a lot over the next few days why is it possible that a car can come so close to the capitol building also what they have seen on generation 6 and let me talk a little bit about washington anyhow i'm sure that many of our international. audience has lives of the city or saw the movies or t.v. shows about washington it has been the duty of the capital of the united states said to me come really close to the government building there was only a fairly small french guarding the white house until a couple of months ago you could go there take pictures of the same is true here for the capitol building there was no friends whatsoever you actually could talk to high end politicians walking in and out taking a lunch break in the sun and this has dramatically changed

hundreds of people in the capitol building. >> there are still quite a few questions left to be answeredlet's focus on the person that has died, this u.s. capitol police officers. u.s. capitol police are still reeling from the riots in january 6. it has been a rough year for them so far. kethevane: yes itas, because on january 6, there was one of those capitol police officer's who were killed by a member of that mob. he succumbed to his injuries a couple of days after the january 6 attack. there were a couple of officers who committed suicide in the days after the january 6 attack, so now the capitol police community is suffering another loss. it has been very complicated for them, and you heard plenty of members of congress expressing their sympathies to those capitol police officer's wo spend their days defending protting them and at times, giving their lives and that protection. you are seeing a debate over the security around the capitol compound. to give you context, the barricades that we saw raised after the january 6 attack spread over blocks and blocks away from the capitol, tak

this time, however, the capitol building was quiet.med as 25—year—old noah greene, an african—american who described himself on social media as a follower of the black nationalist group nation of islam. officials say they have yet to establish a motive for the attack. it came only days after officials started removing a fence put in place following the uprising in january. a week ago, the driver would not have been able to get as close to the building as he did. there had also been talk of reducing the thousands of national guard officers who were drafted in, some of whom found themselves deployed once again. lawmakers will have to decide whether they remain, and whether the fences should go back up. but as flags at the white house were lowered, some were posing a broader question — how to maintain an open democracy when so many people seem to want to cause it harm. david willis, bbc news, los angeles. the headlines on bbc news... new rules for care home visits in england. residents will be allowed two regular visitors indoors from the

capitol building. want to emphasize, there are office buildings at the capitol and then there's the capitol dome which is so synonymous with the scene on capitol hill. that's where those chambers are, that's where the insurrection happened on january 6th. what you are seeing is that is the main check point to get to the u.s. capitol building. it's on the corner of constitution and delaware. and like i was saying before a couple weeks ago you wouldn't have been able to drive up and down constitution. that street was closed off because of that exterior fencing and i just -- you know, i think that that's important to point out to viewers at home. because obviously this is the kind of scenario that they had been really trying to prevent happening since january 6th, and obviously prior to january 6th as well but there is heightened, heightened security on capitol hill. some of that had come down, just because of, you know, there was a sense that things could move beyond january 6th in the insurrection. a sh

a police officer dies after being rammed by a car outside the us capitol building in washington — anotherfficer is being treated in hospital. the suspect who emerged from the car with a knife and ran at officers was shot and died in hospital. the suspect did to start lunging towards us capitol police officers, at which time us capitol police officers fired upon the suspect. in other news: dozens of british mps call on the government to abandon any idea of vaccine passports to help reopen the economy. and the top homicide investigator for the us city of minneapolis gives evidence on day five of the george floyd murder trial. hello and welcome if you're watching in the uk or around the world — and stay with us for the latest news and analysis from here and across the globe. a car has driven through a barricade outside the heavily guarded us capitol building in washington, hitting two police officers. the suspected emerged from the car with a knife and was fatally shot. one of the two officers has died and the other is being treated in hospital. last month, the authorities began to dismantle

capitol building. so back to our live pictures and that blue car which has been stopped by forces this purity forces there and the latest reports as i checked the wires again 2 capitol police officers and a suspect have been taken for medical attention and there's not actually a lot more news from the area but it gives you i mean you can just imagine after everything we saw on january the 6th when crowds breached the capitol in an insurrection there how much the security increased for. the inauguration which was on january 20th of course and then how much it held in place and has as alan fisher was telling us and allan i'll bring you back in at this point you know it has been stepped back but as we look at these pictures and unfortunately i don't know that you can see them the whole black fences the still there around the capitol they can keep people out but i guess if a car wants to ram its way through then it's found a way. and i told you there were numerous checkpoints like that one we're seeing with

capitol building in washington d.c. is under lock down over what's being described as an external security threat the d.c. fire service said it's responding to a shooting there are reports that several people are injured including 2 police officers but i must stress that's not been officially confirmed there is though as you may just be able to make out in the background a heavy security presence a police helicopter as well was seen touching down at the east entrance several. at the scene as well we will of course keep you updated on this story of a reported shooting at the u.s. capitol building which of course all riots in january and has been very much in the news of late. the history of african americans is a well documented subject but what about the experiences of non whites in the soviet union a fascinating insight next into that period on people in our documentary block in the u.s.s.r. stay with us you. know what started my interest i should say black americans in the soviet union in the thirty's was finding this

near the us capitol building in washington after a man drove his car into two officers before getting out of the vehicle and lunging at them with a knife. the man was then shot by police. he later died. a minneapolis homicide investigator has said police officer derek chauvin used "totally unnecessary" deadly force when kneeling on george floyd's neck during an arrest last may. mr chauvin denies the charges against him. police have been questioning the manager of the construction site, whose truck is suspected of causing a train accident in which at least fifty people died. the train hit the lorry that slid onto the tracks from the building site causing hundreds of people to be trapped for hours. during the pandemic, video games have been a growing source of entertainment and a way for many people to socialise online. the last year has seen increased investment in the uk games sector, so much so that developers are hiring new staff in large numbers. marc cieslak reports the uk games industry has experienced massive success in the last 12 months. one example of this is developer sports

at the capitol building or whether it be at the white house. ennsylvania avenue holding a gun and started shooting. do we need to have the robust perimeter and force around the capitol? or are there measures in place to stop a lone wolf as we saw today? >> senator: i think in the last few minutes you articulated three or four incidents that were the lone wolfs acting by themselves with a desire to do harm and stopped in the tracks because of a trained professionals. i am very comfortable and i feel safe in eliminating some of the barriering on the exterior of the capitol. it's time to move forward and i have confidence in law enforcement to take care of us as they do their job as a mission. i think we should continue progress that we have been making to eliminate the fencing, more of the fencing and the national guardmen. we have way to use the personnel in a defensive posture of the nation. >> sandra: we realry appreciate you joining us -- really appreciate you joining us. >> senator: yes, ma'am. >> sandra: great to have you here. i want to men

as the fbi asked me, they wanted to know if i breached the capitol building.r life and your wardrobe to told you to, essentially, do exactly that. so, what's next after the violent insurrection that he doesn't think donald trump told them to do? well, turns out they're just waiting for donald trump to tell them what to do. - we're not giving up. you know, it's not over. we're coming back. - in what way? - uh, it depends on what the boss tells us to do. (laughing) - uh, "donate," i think, was the last thing from up on high. - i've donated a lot to him, you know, i hope he-- - purposefully, or you look at your bank account and realize, "oh, shit, i guess it happened again." i didn't want to leave without finding some common ground with edward. he previously described trump as a superhero, a rock star. but had edward come back to the reality that the president of the united states is mortal, who's not impervious to criticism, and technically works for us. - you've seen "braveheart," of course? everybody's seen "braveheart." - i-i have seen "braveheart." - yes. do

you're taking a live look at the capitol building. but we do have some video of the scene right after this all unfolded, and we're going to show that to you now. two capitol police officers hit by a car after it rammed into a barricade outside of the capitol building. it happened about two hours ago at a check point. this is on the senate side of the complex. u.s. capitol police sent an alert immediately to staffers warning of an external security threat after the crash. they now say there is no ongoing threat. the suspect was taken into custody. that person and the two officers were sent to the hospital. that is where the suspect and at least one of the officers has died this afternoon. here's another view, again, from a biostandard's cell phone there. congress is in recess. most lawmakers were not around. they were in their home states, but other stars, reporters, and police officers still at the capitol now. who the suspect was, what their intentions might have been remain. we're going to keep covering the latest on kpix.com. >>> br

people being able to climb or scaling will get through into the capitol grounds and into the capitol building as they so easily did on gender of the 6 now a lot of those black fences are still up closer around the capitol there are fewer of them but as you see there the razor winds come down there and whilst they might stop people walking through or climbing over they have not been able to stop a car from going through those gates and then hitting the barrier the stop barry you can see there the white flip up area close to the capitol alan. at the white house anything more for me. the attorney general. of course. the overall control of the f.b.i. the f.b.i. have activated the field offices here in washington d.c. and there are no f.b.i. agents on the scene and they will be investigating the situation might be made more complicated trying to find a motive for this because of course we have been reporting the law enforcement are saying that the person who was involved 'd in driving his car towards the checkpoint and then jumping out of the car before being shot by capitol hill officers has died

still reeling after the january attack tonight there are new questions about how to keep the capitol building safe while maintaining it as a symbol of democracy. van hilliard has that part of the story. >> reporter: the threat of domestic attacks here in washington january 6. an insurrection of the u.s. capitol then again friday, the killing of a capitol police officer >> we have to get to the root cause of this violence >> reporter: in the months after the january attack, washington fortified its capitol grounds. >> it looks terrible to have the beacon of our democracy surrounded by razor wire and national guard troops >> reporter: the temporary outer barbed wire barrier came down, leaving just this fencing capitol police officers and this existing barrier to respond to friday's attack >> the capitol police have to be ready 24/7 and they need the resources to do it >> reporter: lieutenant general russell honore released a review last month with proposals for permanent security reforms, including the hiring of more than 850 additional personnel, an integrated retractible fencing system, and q

capitol police forcehis year alone. it was just felt like the building itself was getting back to norm also a little bit after the january 6 insurrection. there had been massive fences an different layers that had really built this fortress around the capitol that had just started in the last week or so to be taken down. you know, reporters and everybody back in the building, feeling like it was maybe a little more business and usual but clearly the u.s. capitol is a target. that's something we're going to have to face and certainly members of congress and the defenses of this capitol are going to be -- going to have to be fort fid at this point. lisa: we were able to start parking up there again, i want to ask you, what does your reporting tell you and what does your gut tell you about whether this incident will change anything, either security or mindset for the politicians at the -- politicians a at the capitol? jonathan: i think you touched on bothelments, lisa. there's a sense that our government is under siege. our democracy is der siege. both phys

representative raul cano was near the capitol building when it all happened. he spoke to us on kron on earlier today telling us he was heading back to the capitol after grabbing some lunch from a nearby restaurant when he started getting frantic messages and calls from his staff members about the capital being on lockdown. he was in his car when everything happened when he tried to go back to the capitol police stopped him, told him to shelter in place in his car while they processed the scene. >> this should be a moment where every member of congress literally every single one of the 435 of us and every senator 100 of them clearly and unequivocally denounce violence say that this is no place in america. i know that may cliched it would go a long way and i'm fortunate. we haven't had that kind of moral from every member of congress and that really needs to be heard by people in across this country. i don't care what their views are. there is simply no justification for the use of violence on the nation's capital. >> very scary experience. certainly especially

it's one of a series of barricades that are right outside of the capitol building. while this is incredibly devastating news we've just heard, the reality is the capitol police officers in this case did their job. the capitol was not breached. there has to be a perimeter somewhere. so they have to make a call about what they think the value is there. the capitol police or member of the national guard will be protecting any gate, in ibarrier like that and have to face down this situation. i think there is a deep desire among members of congress in both parties honestly for the capitol to be the kind of open and majestic place that you were just describing. i completely agree with you. sometimes i would find myself trudging to the office or if you don't get enough sleep the night before, every time i would walk into the building, i would try to make a point to walk on the second floor because it puts you through the rotunda. you can look up inside that beautiful stunning capitol dome, of course where brian sicknick, the last capitol police officer who was killed in the

capitol campus buildings has been neutralized, but the uscp, that's the u.s. capitol police, is continuing to investigate out of an abundance of caution and there is still no entry or exit permitted at this time. so, that's the latest we have from police there. arlette, you cover this white house. i'm sure not only has president biden been aware of this, i imagine, you know, the threat level around places like the white house went up for a little while. has the president responded yet to what's happened? >> brooke, we have not heard from president biden about this attack at the white house but the press secretary said the president is aware of the incident that has taken place there. the president right now is spending the easter weekend at camp david. he actually left the white house. marine one was wheels up at 12:15 p.m. and a little less than an hour later was when that attack of the capitol played out. so, we are still waiting to hear whether the president will offer any further statement relating to this incidents. we know he's traveling with a small cont
