Four people died during the violent assault on the United States Capitol. Three had medical emergencies outside, and one woman, 35-year-old Ashli Babbitt, was shot by police while appearing to climb through an indoor window in the Capitol. Babbitt was an Air Force veteran who tweeted “nothing will stop us” the day before she joined other Trump supporters in storming the Capitol. Babbitt lived in San Diego and boarded a flight to D.C., heeding Trump’s call to converge on the nation’s capital.
