Capitol Police Officer Billy Evans was killed on Friday after a suspect rammed a vehicle into him at a security checkpoint on the Northside of the Capitol complex. Authorities said the suspect stepped out of the vehicle and ran toward the officers with a knife but was gunned down.
The incident comes just weeks after security officials began scaling back security and removing the outside perimeter installed after the Jan. 6 insurrection. While the fencing around the outer perimeter was taken down, the inner perimeter fence surrounding the Capitol building remained in place while law enforcement agencies work to strengthen security.
