There were also reports of a suspicious package thought to possibly be a pipe bomb.

However, they were given the all clear shortly after:

Daily Caller reported on the chaotic events:

Hundreds of Trump supporters stormed the Capitol building during a Wednesday march objecting to the certification of Electoral College votes, multiple sources reported. Hill staff were reportedly told to evacuate over a suspicious package.

Multiple videos showed a large crowd of Trump supporters storming the Capitol building and tearing down fencing Wednesday afternoon. The Blaze reporter Elijah Schaffer said on Twitter that thousands of Trump supporters were able to successfully breach the Capitol building after tearing down four layers of security fencing. A video showed the crowd brawling with police, who were attempting to hold them back.

The Madison building on Capitol Hill was evacuated minutes after the breach, Politico reporter Melanie Zanona said on Twitter. CNN senior congressional correspondent Manu Raju said that police instructed people to evacuate the House Cannon building and did not give a reason as to why.

Politico Congress reporter Olivia Beavers later reported that Capitol police were investigating a suspicious package on First Street. “If you are in the Cannon Building, take visitors, escape hoods, and Go Kits and report to the South tunnel connecting to the Longworth,” police reportedly said.

Several minutes later, multiple reporters said that the evacuation of the Cannon building had been cleared and all road closures would clear momentarily.

“I just had to evacuate my office because of a pipe bomb reported outside,” Democratic Virginia Representative Elaine Luria said on Twitter. “Supporters of the President are trying to force their way into the Capitol and I can hear what sounds like multiple gunshots.”

Stay tuned for updates as more footage is bound to come out of today’s events soon.
