Union: Capitol incident stems from high turnover in officers

An armed man was able to run up the Capitol steps and deep into the Capitol itself in part because the Capitol Police are understaffed and trying to please too many bosses at once, the police union’s leader said Tuesday.

“Talking to everybody, it appears that everybody on the line did their part,” Fraternal Order of Police Chair Lou Cannon said. “We need to look at where the chinks, so to speak, in the armor are.”
