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.

Thank goodness. FBI is still working. I hope Ted Cruz is paying their salaries.
This is on Cruz's head. He knew what he was pushing for would never go down. Yet he talked it up and promoted himself to the detriment of others as well as the nation. Texas, you really need to reconsider before you ever vote for this person again. He cares about himself. Not you. Not the nation.
Maybe now they will get their asses in one room and stay there until this WHOLE mess is figured out!! Republican, Democrat, it makes no difference, WORK IT OUT!!!
Alright! Maybe now we will see some results! 🙂
Gun control? Naaaaaa.
Sounds like someone is going to need Obamacare.
Given the example our elected leaders are setting, this is no surprise.
Someone is probably upset about a much needed program on hold until the IDIOTS in DC get it together.
lets see if this now changes many minds about gun control
Why isn't anyone talking about the black g37 that the police are searching out front? Why hasn't anyone said how many shots? 3? Or 50?
We are living in bad times. I hope the injured person will recover and the shooter will be captured and brought to quick justice and that all others will remain sheltered and safe.
lol..... apparently this is the full story
The frustration is eating at them already. Gun-totin' Tea Baggers gone wild!
It was only a matter of time, hope no one was hurt. But I would welcome the target being Ted Cruz.
UPDATE: :John Boehner and Ted Cruz were found whimpering like cowards, sheltering behind women.. unfortunately both are still alive at this point. Details to follow...LOL
Neither gun laws or imaginary good-guys-with-guns will ever stop a crazy guy. Sorry to hear this is happening.
Too bad he/she/they didn't get every member of the house and senate.... Okay, a bit morbid, but I think my point of disappointment with our gov't. has been made.
maybe if the government pulled their heads out of their asses and actually cared about the people of the united states this wouldn't happen.... just sayin.
And we are suprised, why?
Hopefully no one was hurt....and hopefully alot of people were listening
Sheltering in place in the home of the brave.
This is what name-calling and finger-pointing gets us.
Olympus has fallen!!!!
oh my... please people, remain safe.
Hope they didn't shoot a WWII vet.
