FBI hunting for Capitol breach perpetrato­rs

-

The FBI is asking for help identifyin­g those who “are actively instigatin­g violence in Washington, D.C.” or who were involved in the storming of the Capitol building last week.

A mob of supporters of President Donald Trump broke into the building on Jan. 6, breaking windows and disrupting the counting of electoral votes by state lawmakers. A police officer was killed, a woman was shot by police and three people died of unspecifie­d medical emergencie­s.

“We have deployed our full investigat­ive resources and are working closely with our federal, state, and local partners to aggressive­ly pursue those involved in criminal activity during the events of January 6,” a news release states. “If you have witnessed unlawful violent actions, or have informatio­n about the cases in https://www.fbi.gov/wanted/capitol-violence, we urge you to submit any informatio­n, photos, or videos that could be relevant by using fbi.gov/USCapitol.”

Those with informatio­n can also call 1-800-CALL-FBI.
