A female has been arrested for shooting at the U.S. Capitol. According to reports, a female, who has yet to be identified, rammed her vehicle into the gate of the White House.
When authorities gave chase, the woman ran to the U.S. Capitol and opened fire. One police officer was injured during the mayhem. The Capitol was shut down for hours and reopened at 3 p.m.
White House officials have briefed the President and officers are monitoring the situation.
Looks like shots fired on Capitol Hill. Maybe Congress should reconsider this shut down? Thoughts?
