Man Rams Car Into 2 Police at Capitol Barricade; 1 Officer, Driver Killed

(AP)

A Capitol Police officer was killed Friday after a man rammed a car into two officers at a barricade outside the U.S. Capitol and then emerged wielding a knife. It was the second line-of-duty death this year for a department still recovering from the Jan. 6 insurrection. The Capitol was on lockdown in the aftermath.
