Joe Biden "Heartbroken" Over Deadly Attack At US Capitol

"Jill and I were heartbroken to learn of the violent attack at a security checkpoint on the US Capitol grounds," Joe Biden said in a statement.

US President Joe Biden said he and First Lady Jill Biden were heartbroken about the attack at the US Capitol Friday that left one police officer dead and another wounded. "Jill and I were heartbroken to learn of the violent attack at a security checkpoint on the US Capitol grounds, which killed Officer William Evans of the US Capitol Police, and left a fellow officer fighting for his life," Biden said in a statement. "We send our heartfelt condolences to Officer Evans' family, and everyone grieving his loss." One officer was killed and a second injured Friday after a vehicle rammed through security and crashed into a barrier at the US Capitol, forcing it into lockdown less than three months after a mob assault on Congress.
