Less than three months after rioters stormed the Capitol, police Chief Yogananda Pittman announced another loss in the department's rank on Friday. A man rammed a vehicle into a barricade shielding the property’s north side, killing officer William "Billy" Evans, an 18-year member of the force. Another officer was injured. "We know what a difficult time this has been for the Capitol, everyone who works there, and those who protect it," President Joe Biden said. The latest attack is expected to reignite a debate in Congress over how to fortify the nation's seat of democracy.
