At least two people injured after security incident outside US Capitol

Two US Capitol cops were injured when they were hit by a car that smashed through a barrier Friday afternoon, officials said.

One suspect was taken into custody, police said, and the building was placed on lockdown.

Cellphone video clips showed a helicopter landing near the Capitol before taking off a short time later.

There were unconfirmed initial reports of a shooting that appear to be
unfounded.

The incident took place despite heavy security put in place following the deadly Capitol riot on Jan. 6.
