Police said the supporters of Donald Trump used chemicals during the violence to capture the Parliament House complex. However, later a large number of policemen drove them away. The mob was attempting to dismantle the barricades of the Capitol Building and the police had to shoot to remove them. In this, the woman got shot and died during treatment.
Police said two pipe bombs have also been found. Meanwhile, the US Parliament has rejected Trump’s objections to Biden’s victory in Arizona and upheld the election results. US First Lady Melania Trump’s Chief of Staff Stephanie Grisham, White House Deputy Press Secretary Sarah Matthews, resigned after violence on the Capitol Hill campus by supporters of US President Donald Trump. Grisham has also previously served as the press secretary of the White House.
Earlier, supporters of US President Donald Trump forcibly entered Parliament Capitol Hill on Wednesday and indulged in the violence, despite not being ready to give up even after a bitter defeat in the US presidential election. Trump’s supporters entered the Capitol Hill building, a symbol of American democracy, when lawmakers were preparing to officially announce Joe Biden’s victory in the election. Trump supporters suddenly entered Parliament and security personnel had to take MPs to the army camp.
Following the violence of Trump supporters, a large number of security forces have been deployed inside the Parliament House and the proceedings have now resumed. On the other hand, Trump’s opponents have called it an attempt to wage civil war. Meanwhile, leaders around the world are criticizing the violence. Trump supporters clashed with the police several times in front of the Capitol Hill building, and many managed to enter the Parliament as well. There was an atmosphere of chaos inside Parliament and many MPs had to leave their work from inside the House. At the same time, the doors of the Senate were closed safely.
