A WOMAN was rushed out of the US Capitol on Wednesday afternoon covered in blood as a MAGA mob stormed the building to stop President-elect Joe Biden's certification. <\/p>\n

The woman was taken out of the building in a stretcher and appeared to be bleeding around her neck, footage from MSNBC shows.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The bloodshed occurred amid reports that one person was shot inside the Capitol. <\/p>\n

It was not immediately clear whether the injured woman taken out of the building was the same person who was allegedly shot.<\/p>\n

The woman was shot in the chest on the Capitol grounds and in critical condition, according to CNN.<\/p>\n

A reported shooting emerged as the Capitol was put under lockdown, and the entire city on a 6pm curfew, after protesters broke through a barrier towards the building.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Around the time of the reports of the injured woman and the shooting, President Donald Trump called for peace and support for law enforcement.<\/p>\n

"I am asking for everyone at the U.S. Capitol to remain peaceful. No violence!" the president tweeted.<\/p>\n

"Remember, WE are the Party of Law & Order \u2013 respect the Law and our great men and women in Blue. Thank you!"<\/p>\n
