The suspect in Friday’s attack on US Capitol Police officers outside the iconic Washington building has died, multiple sources told CNN, and one officer has been stabbed.

A senior congressional aide and a US Capitol Police source tell CNN that after the driver of the vehicle rammed his car into a barricade on Constitution Avenue, the driver exited the vehicle brandishing a knife. USCP responded, shooting the suspect and taking him into custody.

An email from the US Capitol Police, obtained by CNN, confirmed that sequence of events. The email stated Capitol Police officers shot the suspect after he rammed the barricade and exited holding a knife. That suspect is now in custody — breathing and conscious — transported to the hospital. Both officers were also injured, and one is being transported to the hospital by USCP.

A law enforcement official told CNN at least one of the officers was stabbed.”(US Capitol Police) is responding to the North Barricade vehicle access point along (Constitution) Avenue for reports someone rammed a vehicle into two USCP officers.

A suspect is in custody. Both officers are injured. All three have been transported to the hospital,” USCP said in a tweet Friday.
