Man With Shotgun Arrested Near U.S. Capitol

Police arrested a man carrying a shotgun outside the Capitol Friday according to authorities. The man, who was not immediately identified, was in custody and no one was injured. An officer first spotted the man near Union Station, about two blocks from the Capitol. The man's vehicle had "items of concern" inside and was searched. They then used a robotic camera to see inside the vehicle but could not determine what the items were. Authorities were evacuating parts of a nearby building as a precaution so they could use a powerful water hose to destroy the vehicle.
