Wild car chase ends with suspect shot to death near U.S. Capitol
Washington (CNN) - She had a 1-year-old child inside and apparently was unarmed.
Instead, the motorist's black Infiniti, according to authorities, itself became a weapon Thursday afternoon, first striking a security barrier and U.S. Secret Service officer near the White House before hurtling down some of the capital's most famous streets, police cruisers in pursuit.
Dramatic video taken minutes later near the U.S. Capitol showed the vehicle backing into a police vehicle before the chase resumed. Gunshots rang through the traffic circle. The motorist was shot by police just a few blocks away.

Was the Canadian hit? Then proceed whoever you are.
Now this is becoming a circus!
Surprised this took 3 days...
Sounds like a Vince Flynn movie.....Kill Shot
They coming to get you GOP traitors.
I guess they didn't realize it was closed...
Cruz finally lost it!!!
AGAIN !?!? God forbid we discuss any revision whatsoever to gun laws.
*book..sorry
THEY should have expected something like this to happen..bunch of BOZO'S on the Hill....when you screw the public over and over and over, and take away jobs eventually it will get out of hand!
this is what happens when you don't try to work things out. Both sides can't have ALL they want, there needs to be some give and take. This is affecting people too much, end this already. If we have the votes after the next election we can try to repeal it but it is not working right now. Pull back and fight another day.
Great, now we got crazy righties shooting up the capitol...
Stay classy, GOP.
Unless an innocent civilian is shot leave them be until he takes out some members of congress then give him a medal.
Pray for your own salvation, your family and their relationship with The Lord and don't leave out this nation and the world. We may be intelligent, sophisticated and computer savvy but we need God to forgive our sins and heal our land.
Hope this isn't the first shot fired of a civil war.
Be honest, who is shocked?
I'll bet it's a fox employee, that couldn't sign up for obamacare!
Good grief. Is security furloughed too? I hope everyone is ok.
"oodness, gracious. me!" It's still early, but I pray and hop that no one has decided to take that misguided advice about "second amendment solutions" to heart and act on it.
This was bound to happen!!!
I really hope this isn't a direct result from the shutdown. If so, things will get more hairy!
Somebody finally snapped. Congress needs to stop playing chess with people's lives.
They should BAN guns in the capital.
Oh boy, this is when all the crazies come out. I give 50% odds that there were no shots at all and this is just sensationalist media
Going to get crazy, we have too many crazy people these days.
