Pelosi blasts FAA over US Capitol evacuation: ‘outrageous and inexcusable’
Fox News
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi late Wednesday grilled the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for causing an evacuation at the U.S. Capitol earlier in the day.
An email alert gave guidance on where individuals in several locations should move. But the aircraft in question was ultimately determined to be a single-engine private Cessna plane that entered restricted airspace over the U.S. Capitol, dropping off military parachutists at National Parks for Nationals vs. Diamondbacks baseball game.
Capitol Security officials said that they did not get a flight notification, which they usually receive. This triggered the alert and prompted the evacuation of the U.S. Capitol.
