Washington Dc On Lockdown After Reports Of Active Shooter On Capitol Hill.
Police are investigating a potentially severe situation at the US Capitol, prompted by a worrisome 911 call suggesting an "active shooter" threat. As a precaution, the Senate office building has been locked down
, and all staff members have been instructed to take cover.
The authorities are taking this matter seriously, with police officers equipped with long rifles conducting a thorough search of the premises.
However, there have been no confirmed reports of gunshots or any injuries. Officials now consider that the call might have been a false alarm or a hoax. The situation is being closely monitored, and everyone inside the Senate building in DC has been advised to remain in their sheltered positions until the all-clear is given.
