The circumstances of Sicknick’s death were also not entirely clear as of Friday morning. In a statement, the Capitol Police said that Sicknick had been “injured while physically engaging with protesters,” and had later collapsed before being transported to the hospital. Two law enforcement officials told the New York Times that he had been hit with a fire extinguisher during the chaos.

Murdered, not killed. Get it right.

EllenDatlow A lot of traitorous rioters are looking for lawyers right now, after they change their underwear. They have to know someone has photos of them.

First .... my deepest sympathy to his family.... May this officer Forever Rest In Peace.... Second, this tragedy is unconscionable that this President caused this entire episode with his rotten BS, he should not have one more day in that White House! He should be gone!!!!!!!!!

Tell me again how blue lives matter to MAGA. He was literally beaten to death by this MAGA mob. Anyone and everyone there should be held accountable for his death. My deepest condolences to his family and friends. May he rest in peace.

Disgusting. The GOP members who incited this violence need to be held accountable. They have misled millions of people with lies and disinformation for far too long. GOPLeader HouseGOP SenateGOP RepMoBrooks HawleyMO SenTedCruz

Donald J Trump should be charged for the murder of this officer!!

Did he sustain injuries, or was he bludgeoned to death with a fire extinguisher?
