WOMAN SHOT AT CAPITAL BUILDING TODAY AS PROTESTERS OF TRUMP AND PROUD BOY RUSH CAPITAL BUILDING

Woman shot during DC Capitol riots dies; Cox urges Utahns to 'speak out against the violence'

At least one person was shot and rushed to a hospital after supporters of President Donald Trump who rallied outside the U.S. Capitol clashed with police officers and breached the building, forcing a lockdown with members of Congress inside.
The protesters, some of who were seen wearing body armor, made their way up the steps around 2:15 p.m. ET, pushing through barricades, officers in riot gear and other security measures put in place in anticipation of the protest.
A woman was shot inside the Capitol and seriously injured, sources tell ABC News. A source familiar with the situation said DC Fire EMS is transporting a woman in critical condition to a local hospital.
It's unclear what led to the shooting or if law enforcement was involved. Images showed officers with weapons drawn.

As of 5:32 p.m., the Capitol was still occupied.
After repeated calls from leaders on both sides of the aisle to call off his supporters, the president released a video message on Twitter at 4:17 p.m. telling his supporters to go home. In the same video, he continued to push baseless, false claims about the election.
"I know you're in pain, I know you're hurt. We had an election that was stolen from us," he said, repeating a false claim in the 1-minute pre-recorded video. "But you have to go home now."
Twitter labeled the video with a warning, "This claim of election fraud is disputed, and this Tweet can’t be replied to, Retweeted, or liked due to a risk of violence."
The tweet came just as Trump's successor, Vice President Joe Biden, held a news conference to address the situation. He called on Trump to tell his supporters to stop.
"This is not dissent, it's disorder. It's chaos. It borders on sedition. And it must end now. I call on this mob to pull back and allow the work of democracy to go forward.
The entire D.C. National Guard has been activated to help, and several other law enforcement groups, including the Federal Protective Service, Secret Service, Virginia National Guard, and Arlington, Virginia, Police Department, are responding to assist the U.S. Capitol Police.
White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany said around 3:40 p.m., the National Guard was on its way. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi requested the National Guard's help to secure the Capitol, according to a source.
