President’s supporters break through barricades as Senate debates certification of Biden win
The United States Capitol was put on lock down on Wednesday with lawmakers inside as Donald Trump supporters clashed with police, broke through barricades and entered the building.
Protesters were seen inside the building and people working inside were ordered by local safety officials to shelter in their offices. Trump supporters were seen walking through the building, waving flags and clashing violently with security. Some members of Congress were told to don gas masks after teargas was deployed inside the building.
