Police sealed off the Capitol on Friday amid reports that shots were fired in the garage of a House office building.

Capitol police were investigating "the sound of gunfire in the garage level of the Rayburn House Office Building," said an announcement on the internal Capitol voice alarm system.

It was probably the sound of Democracy being put down.

Nothing confirmed as of yet, as far as I can see. But this report (http://apnews.myway.com//article/20060526/D8HRHOP80.html) says there were 4 ambulances on scene...

Its either suicide-by-cop or some really stupid terrorists. Seriously, if your going to attack the Capitol Building, get some firepower.
Unless it happens to explode some time soon, my opinion of terrorists in general has fallen :P
