Moments ago, a SWAT team was seen on camera heading down the stairs of the Capitol building near the public entrance where Capitol Police are stationed. As they begin their descent down the stairs, “Shots fired” can be heard over what appears to be a police radio.

NBC Reporter Noah Rothman, who inside the Capitol building with the Capitol Police has confirmed that he heard the “shots fired” warning coming from the police radio.

UPDATE: Shortly after we published this article, an unidentified woman, covered in blood, was seen being taken out of the Capitol building on a stretcher.

Here’s a stunning video of protesters in hand-to-hand combat with law enforcement inside the Capitol building.

Another group of protesters are on the 3rd floor of the Senate building walking door to door shouting, “Where the f*ck are they?”
