The Capitol Hill police officers involved in Thursday's car chase and shooting outside the Capitol are not earning a paycheck or hazard pay due to the government’s partial suspension of services.




While U.S.Capitol Police are considered part of “essential” services, they have not been paid for their work since Tuesday, when the partial suspension took effect.

When Senator Harry Reid (D-Nev.) called an officer injured from the incident from his office and reached him in the hospital according to a spokeperson.

Senator Reid asked the officer how he was doing, and the officer said he's going to be fine and added,"the only thing I do every day is to make sure you and everyone who works up here is safe."

The chaotic case and Capitol lockdown began when a woman tried to ram a barrier near the White House and ended with a chase to the Capitol, where shots were fired.

One officer was injured in a related car crash.

Capitol Hill sources confirm to Fox News the suspect is dead.

LOL Dirty Harry is to stupid to realize that the cop was taking a shot at him.

The Dems are to stupid to realize that the people are angry and holding them accountable for this shut down with their Dictatorship tactics. Dirty Harry Reid and Obama should be ashamed of themselves and have sunk to a new low.

I remember back in the 30's the NSDAP wouldn't compromise politically, it was their way or no way and that is the same way Obama acts.

This administration hasn't produced a budget in 5 years and the government hasn't shut down in over 17 years (can anyone take a guess who was in office then? Someone who was to busy getting topped off to deal with real situations.

This President and his Administration is a joke and a complete waste of time, wait I take that back at least jokes are funny. Under Obama's watch America has taken a soft stance on terrorism, cut our military back so much they cant defend themselves, ties our militaries hands and makes us look like wimps and even had our credit downgraded for the first time in our nations history! Obama has made America look weak and taken us from the most feared nation to the most laughed at.

President Reagan had the Russians cowering from us and now they walk all over us.

Let me guess, it's Obama's fault.


I don't remember when I've seen a worse sense of horse blinder logic

It may not be his "fault", but he sure isn't doing anything to fix the problems!

Yep!
It's his Majesty's fault,or should I say l'Empreur's fault!

Spider-Man never got paid so stop complaining or become a villain!
